Vanilla Bean Salted Caramel Sauce + Brownie Chunks + Creamy Vanilla Bean Ice Cream = an AWESOME way to celebrate pretty much any occasion.

Caramel Brownie Ice Cream

What might be my favorite part of this recipe is that it took about 2 minutes to pull it together!

Last time I made a batch of this ice cream, I used a couple of leftover gluten-free brownies, but pretty much any brownie recipe will be great in this as well.

Brownie Ice Cream

Warm brownies with a scoop of cold ice cream and a generous pour of chocolate sauce are one of my favorite desserts.

That awesome pairing first inspired this Brownie Ice Cream years ago. Since then, we’ve made countless desserts with brownies and ice cream. And, Almond Joy Brownie Sundaes are some of our favorites to combine with this cold treat.

Homemade Ice Cream Recipes

I have a fairly well-established fondness for homemade ice creams. With 68 ice cream recipes on this website and more ice cream makers in my house than I even want to admit to owning, there are endless ways to enjoy a bowl of ice cream.

oh! And speaking of those ice cream makers, did you know that you can make almost any ice cream recipe without a machine?

    What is the best technique you have found for swirling the caramel into your ice cream?

    1. Mary Younkin says:

      Vanessa – I just layer it into my ice cream container when transferring it from the ice cream maker. Then if needed might swirl it with a knife or spoon.
