Chocolate Brownie Ice Cream

July is National Ice Cream Month, so here’s one my favorite homemade ice cream recipes! It’s a chocolate brownie mix  that includes a heaping scoop of brownie mix churned into the mixture! It’s a chocolate lovers dream come true and it tastes like a Wendy’s Frosty! This ice cream is a sinch to make, but you will need a ice cream maker for it. Sorry, there’s no getting around it here. I much prefer the smooth and creamy texture that I get from making ice cream via a slow churn method. The mouth-feel alone is worth it. Trust me on this one – get your ice cream maker and make this Chocolate Brownie Ice Cream ASAP!

Brownie Mix is the secret ingredient to this Ice Cream. It makes it taste like a Wendy's Frosty.

Ingredients

• 2 cups Heavy Cream
• 1 cup Whole Milk
• ½ cups Sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
• pinch Salt
• ¼ cups Cocoa Powder
• 1-¼ cup Dry Brownie Mix

Instructions

1. Combine all ingredients into a large glass or metal bowl and mix with a wire whisk until combined. The cocoa and the brownie mix should be fully incorporated and dissolved. It will be grainy.
2. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
3. Pour into your ice cream maker and follow the instructions for the machine being used.
4. Once the proper soft serve consistency is reached, transfer it to a freezer safe container and freeze overnight.
5. Scoop out and serve.

• Pros- it’s small and can be stored easily.
• Cons- You have to prefreeze it and it’ll take up room in your freezer. Plan accordingly.

Do you make homemade ice cream? I have a ton of them here on the blog and I do have some no-churn recipes that don’t require an ice cream maker. I much prefer a slow churned ice cream over a whipped cream ice cream. I think that the whipped cream and sweetened condensed milk versions have an almost oily mouth-feel that I just don’t care for. However, if I’m stuck and desperate for some ice cream, I’ll not hesitate to make a no churn recipe and add in a lot of candies or fruit. The added air that’s incorporated as it’s churned just makes for a smoother, creamier ice cream.

This recipe is part one of a three part series including Pâte à Choux and Brownie Ice Cream Puffs.
