Can I Use Ice Cream In My Butter Cream?

Hi,
For a change of pace I added icecream instead of Dream Whip. How long can I keep the cup cakes out? Do they need to be refrigerated? It's about 84 degrees in my house
I used about 1 Cup of vanilla ice cream thawed ( not completely liquid) to two pounds powdered sugar along with milk ( it was really thick) and a cup of shortening, a bit of butter and the other usual ingredients.
Yeah, I'm with cakes47. I'm thinking like " ice cream cake", probably not a good idea to keep in a warm place, but then again...is it still really "ice cream" or just ice cream that has been put into a icing. I think I would keep it in the frig until ready to serve to be on the safe side.
Once I read that we shouldn't consume the melted icecream as most of them contains egg and is's safe in freezing temp but not when melted/thawed. Those eggs and the milk in room temp, is a breeding ground of bacteria so I don't think it is a good idea to use it in BC.
hmm good question! I remember a post from a while ago that someone was talking about using melted icing in their recipes, I just can't remember if it was cake or BC they were talking about!
Have you tried to search and see if you could find anything? I am thinking btw Macsmom might know the answer to this question, maybe PM her?
With all the preservatives and pasturizing, eating melted ice cream isn't going to hurt you - unless of course its spoiled from sitting out.
Experiment, what's the worst that can happen - you don't like the results?
Have fun!
