Answers:
Dairy Queen Ice Cream Cake
Butter the cake pan of your choice, then press wax paper over the bottom of the pan!.

If using Dairy Queen ice cream, spread it in the bottom of the pan!. If you are using any other ice cream, allow it to soften, then spread on the bottom of pan until the pan is almost half full!. Sprinkle with crushed Oreo cookies, then spoon hot fudge sauce (at room temperature) over the top of this!. Set in freezer until frozen!.

Remove from freezer and add second layer of ice cream!. Smooth it evenly with the top of the cake pan!. Return to the freezer and freeze until very hard!.

Remove from freezer and frost with a mixture of equal parts ice cream and thawed frozen whipped topping beaten together!. Return to freezer until serving timeWww@FoodAQ@Com

Many of these types of restaurants and also bakeries, such as those in grocery stores, use a prepared frosting product made by the brand Rich's!. It is called Rich's Bettercreme, and unfortunately it it not widely available or easy to find!. I have seen it available for purchase at U-Bake shops; they sell partially baked cookies and other baked goods that you finish baking at home!. A store in my area had both a frozen mix and some premade colored tubes of the prepared frosting!. If you ask at a local bakery (grocery store, Walmart, Sam's etc!.) and this is what they use for their cakes, they may be willing to sell you a small amount!.

The first link in sources is a place where you can order Bettercreme (and hundred of other cake decorating ingredients and supplies) online!. The second link takes you to the Rich's company site!. If you click on the Products tab and then select "Support", you can access an 800 number that you can call!.!.!.!.!.they may be able to tell you where you can buy the Bettercreme in your area!.

Finally, here is a recipe I've tried that yields a creamy frosting using non-dairy creamer!. It has a good flavor and works well for decorating!.

Bakery Frosting (from Taste of Home’s Cupcakes & Muffins magazine special)

2 cups shortening
? cup nondairy creamer
1 teaspoon almond extract (or clear vanilla extract)
1 package (32 oz!.) confectioners’ sugar
? to ? cup water
Food coloring, optional

In a large mixing bowl, beat the shortening, creamer, and extract!. Gradually beat in the confectioners’ sugar!. Add enough water until frosting reaches desired consistency!. If desired, add food coloring!.

Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 months!. Bring to room temperature before spreading!. Yield: 8 cups

Happy Baking!
