How to celebrate Baked Alaska Day?
Start by gathering the ingredients with a grown-up: cake, ice cream, and meringue. Together, bake the cake base and let it cool. Scoop your favorite ice cream on top of the cake and freeze it. Whip up a fluffy meringue using egg whites and sugar. Carefully cover the ice cream and cake with the meringue. With adult help, bake it briefly or use a blowtorch to brown the meringue. Enjoy this sweet treat with family or friends by having a small Baked Alaska party. Share your delicious creation, maybe even taking pictures to remember the day!
