Our morning host Linda Cassidy shared with me that she made ice cream with some "leftover" king cake (I use "" because leftover king cake is hard to come by in my life). So I was interested of course but sounded like work. Then she said it was easy...so of course I needed that recipe. Here is that and below another that my best friend Wendee found online for a King Cake Poke Cake. It was so good and really gave you all that king cake flavor. And how about this life hack?? In the form of a poke cake... it doesn't actually count as king cake and I think we can have all year. Right??? :)
NO-CHURN KING CAKE ICE CREAM
2 Cups Heavy Cream
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 C of diced up king cake
Freezable container
In a bowl, stir vanilla into condensed milk and set aside. Whip cream until stiff Peaks. Fold in milk and vanilla mixture. Pour a base of mixture on bottom of container. Sprinkle half the king cake chunks. Cover tightly (that's important or it will form ice crystals) with remaining cream and put remaining cake pieces on top. Decorate with colored icing or sugars of desired. COVER and freeze for 5 hours. Enjoy!

KING CAKE POKE CAKE
Cake:
1 box yellow cake mix (plus ingredients on the box)
1 small package vanilla instant pudding (add dry)
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, divided
4 teaspoons cinnamon, divided
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
Topping:
6 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 (8 ounce) container Cool Whip, thawed
Sprinkles and a baby!
Make cake mix according to the box directions mixed with the pudding. Pour half of the batter into a greased 9x13 cake pan. Stir 1 cup of brown sugar with 3 teaspoons of cinnamon together and sprinkle over the cake batter. Drop remaining batter over. Bake until done.
While baking combine the sweetened condensed milk, melted butter and remaining brawn sugar and cinnamon. When cake is done and still warm, poke holes in it with the end of a wooden spoon. Pour butter mixture over evenly. Cool completely at this point. To make the topping beat the cream cheese with the powdered sugar. Fold in the Cool Whip. Spread over cooled cake and top with sprinkles and a baby. This is best made the day before! Enjoy!
