ICE CREAM CAKE ROLL
? pkg!. chocolate cake mix
3 eggs
? c!. water
carton of ice cream (any flavor), softened

Mix first three ingredients together and pour into a jelly roll pan lined with wax paper!. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes!. Gently turn cake out of pan and onto a kitchen towel sprinkled with powdered sugar!. Roll the cake up into the towel to cool (this will help it keep its rolled shape)!. After the cake is cool, unroll it and spread a somewhat thin layer of softened ice cream evenly over the cake!. Roll up the cake again and wrap it in plastic wrap and re-freeze (before freezing, you can frost the cake or put whipped topping on the cake if desired)!. Once frozen, cut the cake into slices and adorn the slices with chocolate drizzle, powdered sugar, whipped topping, etc

Well the italians eat pudding (like zabaglione) or ice cream (like spumoni) quite often so you could go with that!.

The internet has lots of recipes for homemade pudding which basically requires milk eggs and sugar!. That is IF you don't have a box of pudding mix in the pantry!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There are lots of simply lovely Italian desserts: ZABAGLIONE!.
Put 5 egg yolks in a large mixing bowl!.
Add 1/2 cup superfine sugar, whisk until thick & pale, volume doubled!.
Put bowl over pan of simmering water!.
Add 2/3 cup Marsala wine or sweet sherry, & continue whisking!.
Continue until mixture becomes warm (10 minutes)!.
Pour mixture into 4 tall wine glasses!. Serve with amaretti cookies!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

if you have brownie or cake mix you can't beat topping that with ice cream, toasted nuts, and caramel or chocolate sauce!.

if you have some ice cream or sorbet, try topping it with some fresh fruit such as berries or apples!.
