Ingredients

  • One box brownie mix plus ingredients needed to prepare
  • 2 quarts vanilla ice cream
  • Toppings: whipped cream, hot fudge, caramel, sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, cherries

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Prepare brownie batter according to box instructions. Thoroughly grease a muffin tin and pour 1 ½ to 2 tablespoons of brownie batter into each greased muffin cup. Bake for 10 minutes (the brownies should be dry on the top but still slightly undercooked). Place pan on a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once the brownies are cool, scoop ice cream onto the top of each brownie and spread into a flat layer, make sure the ice cream is filled all the way to the top of each muffin cup. Cover tightly and place the muffin pans in the freezer until the ice cream is firm, preferably overnight.
  • Right before serving: Prepare toppings. Remove the muffin pans from the freezer and carefully remove each "cupcake". Run a thin knife around the outside of each, if necessary. Top with whipped cream, hot fudge, caramel, sprinkles etc. and serve immediately.

Notes

As long as your muffin tins are well greased, the brownie and ice cream should come out easily. Run a thin knife around the outside of each cup, to help them release easier. Since it does take a little time to remove them, I suggest having a baking sheet in your freezer and placing the brownie ice cream cups onto the baking sheet as you remove them. This will keep them from melting.
