Easy "at home" Ice Cream Cake

5/11/2020

My husband and kids love a good ice cream cake! Making treats at home has become one of my favorite things of all time! Making homemade ice cream has been something I've been doing a lot lately since its been getting hotter outside! Stepping it up to an ice cream cake seemed like the next logical step. It turned out beautifully & was a total hit with my crew! It is super simple and very easy to modify the flavor too for your families liking! Hope y'all enjoy it!

RECIPE:

FOR THE BROWNIE LAYER

1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, plus 2 1/2 tablespoons
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

FOR THE NO-CHURN MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM LAYER

2 cups heavy whipping cream
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
2 1/2 teaspoons peppermint extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 drop green food coloring (optional)
4 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips, finely chopped

FOR THE GARNISHES

3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup powdered sugar
mini chocolate chips to sprinkle

INSTRUCTIONS:

TO MAKE THE BROWNIE LAYER:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Mist a 9-inch springform pan with non-stick spray.
Place the sugar, butter, cocoa, and salt in a large microwave-safe bowl, and microwave in one-minute increments, stirring, until the butter is completely melted and the mixture feels very warm to the touch.
Add the eggs one at a time, stirring after each addition.
Stir in the flour.
Stir in the vanilla.
Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Cool completely in the pan, then layer with no-churn mint chocolate chip ice cream and freeze.

TO MAKE THE NO-CHURN MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM LAYER:

Place the cream in a large mixing bowl and whip on medium-high speed until it holds stiff peaks.
Fold in the condensed milk, peppermint extract, salt, and food coloring until well-combined.
Stir in the chopped chocolate and spread the mixture over the cooled brownie layer.
Freeze until hard, remove the sides of the springform pan, and garnish with whipped cream and mini chocolate chips.

TO GARNISH:

Place the cream in a medium mixing bowl and whip on medium-high speed until fluffy.
Add the powdered sugar and continue to whip until the mixture holds stiff peaks.
Carefully spread the whip cream all over the top of the ice cream layer and sprinkle with mini chocolate chips.
