We got together with friends this weekend and went out to eat. I suggested we have dessert back at our house after dinner. For some reason this Brownie Ice Cream Cake popped into my head. This was a recipe given to us by a family friend at least 30 years ago. I was obsessed with making it again.
Ingredients:
1 pkg. brownie mix with nuts
1 qt. Kona coffee ice cream
1 qt. English Toffee ice cream
1 qt. Rocky Road ice cream
Chocolate fudge syrup
Mini Chocolate chips
Whipped Cream
Directions:
Cook brownies according to package directions in a spring-form pan. Cool.
Melt all ice creams until soft. Add a layer of Kona Coffee ice cream on top of brownies. Drizzle with warmed fudge syrup; sprinklie with mini-chips. At this point, you may want to put the pan in the freezer so the ice cream hardens a bit before adding the subsequent layers.
Layer with English Toffee ice cream, drizzle syrup, sprinkle mini-chips. Repeat with Rocky Road ice cream.
Freeze this conconction overnight. Next day, unmold from spring-form pan and cover top of "cake" with whipped cream. For a fancy finish, sprinkle chocolate shavings on top of whipped cream. Replace to freezer until ready to serve. Slice and serve with hot fudge sauce.
Needless to say, this is not a diet dessert! Of course, you can add different crunchies between layers of ice-cream: Toffee chips, nuts, etc.
Brownies, three kinds of ice cream, and whipped cream? Holy Moly, sign me up. Plus, you have Popsicles in the freezer. Can I move in?
