Instructions
In a large saucepan, combine the cocoa, sugar, and salt. Add the cream and whisk to combine. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring continually, until it comes together and begins to steam and simmer. If you wish, you may increase the heat, but continue stirring non-stop. Do not step away at this point.
Remove from the heat and immediately add the chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate has completely melted. Stir in the milk and vanilla. Cool and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until completely cold. Process according to your machine’s instructions.
When the mixture finishes churning, transfer about a third of it to a freezer safe container, scatter brownie pieces over each layer of ice cream and sprinkle with candy. Repeat the layers twice more.
Cover with a lid and freeze until ready to serve. Scoop into bowls and serve over brownies or with additional brownie chunks, if desired.
