Adding Strawberry Ice Cream for Baked Alaska

Video Transcript

"Hi I'm Gail Hoffman from Redington Beach Florida and on behalf of Expert Village I am going to make for you a baked Alaska. Alright we're going to use our plastic wrap to line our stainless steel bowl which is going to fit on top of our cake. You can do plastic wrap this way and the opposite way if you don't have a wide enough piece. Just make sure you have enough to overlap on the sides. And just kind of let it fall in the center and then push it to the edges. And then we're going to use some more plastic wrap to form our strawberry outer layer. It's important that your ice cream is nice and soft. Which I have some softened strawberry ice cream. You don't want it too soft though. And like I said before you could just use one kind of ice cream and fill it up to the top but I wanted to make it two different ice creams just cuz it looks a lot prettier when you cut into it and it gives you two different flavors of ice cream. And then we use the spoon to get this shape going. You just basically want to make it the same shape as the bowl. So you're just pushing it to the sides and on the bottom. I'm using for this bowl I'm using a quart of strawberry ice cream. So it's relatively smoothed out and now I have a little area a little chamber in here that I'm going to put the chocolate ice cream. But first I'm going to put this in the freezer and let it get nice and hard again."
