Ingredients
Ice Cream
2cupsvanilla ice cream, slightly meltedLet sit at room temperature until soft but not watery.
Flour
1.5cupsself-rising flourScoop and level for accuracy.
Optional Topping
2tablespoonsrainbow sprinklesFor decoration on top.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with non-stick spray.
Let the ice cream sit out for a few minutes until slightly melted.
In a large bowl, combine melted ice cream and self-rising flour until just mixed. Do not overmix. Gently fold with a spatula until there are no large streaks of flour. A few small lumps are okay.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle rainbow sprinkles on top if using. Smooth the top lightly with the back of a spoon.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, tent loosely with foil for the last 10 minutes.
Let cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice with a serrated knife for clean cuts.
Notes
Store leftover slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For freezing, wrap slices tightly in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag for up to 1 month.
