Ingredients
Scale
Brownie Layer
- 1 box brownie mix (18.3 oz), prepared according to package instructions
Ice Cream Layer
- 2 pints of your choice of ice cream flavors (e.g., vanilla and chocolate)
Topping
- 1 cup fudge sauce, heated
Instructions
- Prepare Brownies: Follow the instructions on the brownie mix box to prepare the batter. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan and bake as directed until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the brownies to cool completely.
- Layer Ice Cream: Once the brownies have cooled, evenly spread one pint of the first ice cream flavor over the brownie base. Freeze the cake for about 30 minutes to firm up this layer. Then, spread the second pint of ice cream flavor over the first layer and freeze again until solid, ideally for several hours or overnight.
- Add Fudge Sauce: Before serving, warm the fudge sauce slightly until pourable. Drizzle the warm fudge sauce evenly over the top of the ice cream layer for a rich, decadent finish.
- Serve: Slice the Brownie Ice Cream Cake into squares and serve immediately. Keep any leftovers frozen.
Notes
- For best results, use high-quality ice cream flavors that complement each other.
- You can prepare the cake a day in advance; just remember to keep it frozen until serving.
- For easier slicing, dip your knife in hot water and wipe dry before cutting.
- Optional: Add chopped nuts or sprinkles between layers for added texture.
