Ingredients Needed

  • Brownies – Bake part of the box of brownies or use my homemade brownie mix and bake a loaf pan size.
  • Heavy whipping cream: You can substitute 2 (8 ounces each) containers of Cool Whip instead of the heavy cream.
  • Sweetened condensed milk: you can use fat-free sweetened condensed milk if you prefer 
  • Brownie mix: just the powder of the brownie mix. We will use this powder to mix into the sweetened condensed milk for flavor!

How to make Brownie Ice Cream

  1. You’ll need to bake some brownies – or even buy some premade ones – and let them cool.
  2. Beat heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  3. Stir brownie mix (powder) into the sweetened condensed milk and fold this into the whipped cream.
  4. Crumble some of the brownies you baked to turn them into brownie bites. You can use as much or as few as you like. (I used about ½ of the loaf.) I won’t judge you for how you dispose of the rest of the batch.
  5. Carefully fold into the ice cream mixture. 
  6. Freeze in a container until hard. Takes about 4 hours to chill but I find the best results when I let it chill overnight.

  1. The brownie batter ice cream at Maggie Moo’s is totally my favorite flavor. Why have I never attempted this at home? Oh yeah. Because when I realize how much actual CREAM is in ice CREAM… I start to feel guilty. Screw it. I’m making it anyways.

    Thanks for the recipe ๐Ÿ˜‰

  2. @sweetpeaskitchen.com
    Thank you! It tasted good too. ๐Ÿ™‚

    @Kim McCallie
    I love having my ice cream maker, although sometimes it can be a pain to try to remember to get it all done the day before. Thanks for reading! ๐Ÿ™‚

    @Kim of Mo’Betta
    LOL…sometimes I’m glad when I don’t have the doughnut pan for the same reason. ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks for commenting!

  3. This is my favorite ice cream, so I’m pretty thankful I don’t have an ice cream maker…however, it’s really making me WANT an ice cream maker. *sigh* And I can’t keep up with all the little holidays either…
