Directions

Prepare the Ice Cream Layer

Allow vanilla ice cream to defrost slightly until it can be spread.

Put into a round baking pan and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes.

Prepare the Lemon Curd

1.

Mix egg yolks, corn starch, sugar, and water together in a small saucepan over medium heat.

Once boiling and thickening slightly, add oil and lemon juice.

Continue stirring constantly until mixture is thickened and custard-like. Set aside to cool.

To Assemble the Baked Alaska

1.

Turn the cake out onto a serving plate.

2.

Spread curd on top of cake in an even layer. Remove ice cream from freezer and invert over lemon curd, forming a dome-shaped ball of ice cream.

Cover the cake/ice cream dome fully in meringue, using either a spatula or a piping bag with a tip.

4.

Once the baked alaska is complete and ready to be served, use a mini blow torch to brown the meringue. Enjoy this LICHTIGEN Chanuka treat!
