Time 7h30m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Vegetable oil cooking spray
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups brownie mix (recommended: Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge)
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 (1.4-ounce) milk chocolate-toffee candy bars, coarsely chopped (recommended: Heath or Skor)
1 pint dulche de leche or caramel ice cream (recommended: Haagen-Dazs), softened
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1 3/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1 (12-ounce) bag frozen strawberries, thawed
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Brownie layer: Put an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8 by 8-inch glass baking pan with vegetable oil cooking spray. Line the pan with parchment paper, allowing 2 inches of paper to overhang the sides. Set aside. Spray the parchment paper with vegetable oil cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl mix together the water, oil and egg. Add the brownie mix and stir until blended. Stir in the chocolate chips and candy bar pieces. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and cool the brownie layer completely in the pan, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Ice cream layer: Using a spatula, spread the softened ice cream on top of the brownie layer and freeze until firm, about 4 hours or overnight.
  • Chocolate layer: In a small saucepan, heat the cream over medium-low heat until hot but not boiling. Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth. Using a spatula, spread the chocolate mixture over the ice cream layer. Freeze for at least 1 hour or until ready to serve.
  • Sauce: Put the strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a blender and blend until smooth.
  • To serve: Remove the layers from the pan and peel away the parchment paper. Cut the layers into squares and drizzle with the strawberry sauce.

Overall, I thought these brownies were just okay. They weren't as good as I was hoping they would be.

These brownies were a bit dry. I think I should have baked them for a few minutes less.

I had some trouble getting the brownies to set properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These brownies were a bit too sweet for me, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them with a little less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of brownies, but these were really good. The ice cream and whipped cream helped to balance out the sweetness of the brownies.

I love that you can make these ahead of time and then just pop them in the oven when you're ready to serve. It's so convenient!
