I believe the answer is:

drop scones

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'make these cakes' is the definition.
The definition suggests an adverb but the answer is not.

'stops having ice creams' is the wordplay.
'stops' becomes 'drops' (dropping is a kind of stopping).
'having' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'ice creams' becomes 'cones' (ice cream cones).
'drops'+'cones'='DROP SCONES'

'and' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for drop scones that I've seen is " We may gobble them up!".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
