Cake Petit Fours

Ingredients

• 1 cup confectioners' sugar 
• 8 servings brown food coloring green red
• 8 servings ice cream frozen hard any flavor you desire
• 0.3 cup milk 
• 1  round cake store-bought
• 1 pint strawberries sliced
• 1 small jar strawberry jam seedless
• 1 pound vanilla frosting 

Equipment

• bowl
• oven
• wire rack
• ziploc bags

Directions

1. Slice cake into 1/4-inch thick slices.
2. Spread jam on the cake slices and then top with sliced strawberries.
3. Cut cake slices into 1-inch circles and stars and set aside.
4. Separate the frosting into 3 bowls and add food coloring to reach desired colors (1 to 2 drops of red to make pink, 1 to 2 drops of green to make seafoam and 1 to 2 drops of brown to make cream). Make a glaze by combining the sugar and milk in a medium bowl. Separate the glaze into 3 bowls and tint each to match the frosting colors.
5. Place cake cut-outs on a wire rack. Fill 3 resealable plastic bags fitted with a star tip with each color of frosting and then pipe desired frosting over. Using a melon baler, add a scoop of ice cream and then sandwich the cut-outs.
6. Drizzle glaze over cut-outs.
7. Let glaze set. Pipe a star on the top of each petit four with the corresponding color of icing.
8. Garnish with a small strawberry slice.
