The  ice cream roll is a fresh and quick summer dessert , perfect to serve at the end of a dinner with guests or to celebrate a special birthday . A soft biscuit dough is filled with a filling composed of two flavors of ice cream, for a super delicious result, that will conquer everyone from the first taste.

To make it, start with the biscuit : work the egg yolks with the sifted sugar, flour and yeast, then gradually incorporate the whipped egg whites. Once the mixture has been distributed on a baking tray with baking paper and cooked at 180 °C for no more than 10 minutes, simply place the base on a damp cloth and wait for it to cool.

All that remains is to quickly mix the ice cream to soften it, spread it on the now cold biscuit dough, roll it up to obtain a compact cylinder and place the latter in the freezer for at least 4 hours , wrapped in a sheet of transparent film. You will thus obtain an irresistible and creamy roll, ideal for dusting with an impalpable layer of icing sugar and to offer to adults and children for an irresistible snack .

We chose to use a homemade chocolate ice cream and a cream ice cream , but you can choose the types you prefer, enrich the filling with many other ingredients and customize the biscuit: let yourself be inspired by our suggestions.
