Ingredients

  • 1 pint vanilla ice cream Häagen Dazs is my choice
  • 2 sticks (16 tablespoons or 8 ounces) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3 cups self-rising flour

Instructions

  • Thaw the ice cream at room temperature until soft, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450°F. Lightly spray the sides of a quarter sheet pan or 9 x 13-inch baking pan with baking spray.
  • Spoon the ice cream into a large bowl. In the bowl of a food processor pulse the flour and butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal; stir into the ice cream with a wooden spoon until incorporated. Using your hands, gently knead the dough until starts to clump together. Drop clumps of the dough into the prepared pan. Using an offset spatula sprayed with baking spray, spread the dough into an even layer. Bake until the top is golden brown, about 20-22 minutes. Let cool. Cut into 12 squares. Serve with your favorite shortcake toppings. Enjoy!
