Ice cream gets a whole new use in this tender bread recipe that I pared down to serve two. Be sure to use full-fat ice cream for best results. —Katherine Kuehlman, Denver, Colorado

Ingredients

1 cup butter pecan ice cream, softened
3/4 cup self-rising flour
1 tablespoon sugar

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the ice cream, flour and sugar. Transfer to a 5-3/4x3x2-in. loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.

Editor's Note

As a substitute for self-rising flour, place 1 teaspoon baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a measuring cup. Add all-purpose flour to measure 3/4 cup.

Worst recipe I ever tried. Don't waste your ice cream on this tasteless mess.

Made 2 different kinds. One was Pistachio Honey and the other was Matcha Green Tea. Delicious. I made this recipe with my 5 yr old nephew. So easy and he was so excited to make ice cream bread. Will definitely be making this again, trying out new flavors.

I was intrigued by this recipe. I made it with Haagen Daaz butter pecan ice cream. We had a slice the day it was made

Tried this recipe because of the novelty of a 2 ingredient bread. Didn’t hate it, didnt love it. I used butter pecan ice cream, it was very bland and a little dense. Certainly won’t make again.

I like to try different things and did so despite the mixed reviews. Total waste of good ice cream and flour.

It was a giant muffin.. Call it ice cream muffin. The only relation to bread is that it baked in an oven and had flour. It doesn't come close to being bread. It's a novelty for kids to make though. I won't be making this again, for $2.50 I can get a nice loaf of bread at the store. This muffin idea cost about 6 bucks.

Great, easy recipe! I used 2 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt with the 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour since i didnt have self rising flour. I also used Breyers butterscotch blondies ice cream and added a couple tablespoons of maple syrup and a couple teaspoons of cinnamon sugar. Came out moist and just sweet enough. The blondie chunks were a tasty surprise. Yum!

I'm not a baker so when I follow directions and waste ingredients and time.... its super disappointing. Couldn't even eat it and my husband laughed at me, so thanks for that as well.
