Baked Alaska recipe made with ice cream, sponge cake, and meringue. Ingredients:
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 5 egg whites, room temperature
- 1 layer sponge cake
- 1 brick chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla ice cream or other flavor, very firmly frozen
Preparation: Beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually add the sugar to egg whites and beat until meringue forms stiff peaks. Cut sponge cake 1 inch larger than the brick of ice cream. Spread meringue over the ice cream and the cake, taking care to seal completely so no ice cream is exposed. Bake at 400° until meringue is light brown.
Serves 8.

Get one of those lighters that has the long handle on it(or a butane torch, but not everyone has one of those just sitting around). The whole point of the oven is to bake the meringue around the ice cream, so just make a really thin layer(like thin enough that you can see the ice cream), torch it be done with it.
