5. Gently fold together once more until everything is evenly distributed. 
6. Transfer to a 1 lb loaf pan, 8 or 9 inch cake pan, or a freezer safe ice cream storage container. Top with extra sprinkles and cake crumbs (if desired).
7. Freeze for 6-8 hours, for best results, overnight.
8. When ready to serve, remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it sit for at least 5 minutes for the perfect scoop.
