round cake pans. Bake then cool. This
can be made days ahead, and

lemonade concentrate. Spread ice cream mixture evenly in
a foil lined
9 x 1 1/2 inch round cake pan. Freeze until firm about 2 to 3 hours

cake fresh).

then top with second layer of cake. Put assembled cake, well
covered,

lemonade and sugar until fluffy and peaks form. Frost sides

will be too frozen to eat.
