Spumoni is such a wonderful nostalgic dessert that brings together the perfect combination of cherry, chocolate, and pistachio flavors. It is a family favorite because it feels fancy while being incredibly easy to pull together for a dinner party or a weekend treat.

You can keep this dessert frozen for a few weeks if you wrap the pan tightly. For the cleanest slices, run your knife under hot water before cutting into the bars.

Ingredients

  • 1 pint cherry ice cream
  • 1 pint chocolate or vanilla ice cream
  • 1 pint pistachio ice cream

Instructions

  1. 1

    Take your pints of ice cream out of the freezer for about ten minutes so they become easy to spread.

  2. 2

    Line a standard loaf pan with plastic wrap, making sure to leave some overhang on the sides so you can lift the finished brick out later.

  3. 3

    Spread the softened cherry ice cream into an even layer at the bottom of the pan.

  4. 4

    Add the chocolate or vanilla ice cream as the second layer, smoothing it out carefully over the cherry.

  5. 5

    Finish with the pistachio ice cream on top and smooth the surface with a spatula.

  6. 6

    Cover the top with the plastic wrap and freeze for at least four hours until the layers are firm.

  7. 7

    When you are ready to serve, lift the block out of the pan using the plastic wrap and slice it into thick bars.

๐Ÿ’ก Tips

To get perfect slices, dip your knife in warm water and wipe it dry between each cut. Store leftovers in the freezer by wrapping the bars individually in parchment paper to keep them fresh.
