Brownies

Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream

Warm Chocolate Sauce

Method

Brownies

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Melt Butter and Mix Sugars

    In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in granulated sugar and brown sugar until well combined.

  3. 3

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Allow the butter mixture to cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.

  4. 4

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt.

  5. 5

    Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  6. 6

    Add Walnuts

    Fold in the chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.

  7. 7

    Bake the Brownies

    Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

  8. 8

    Cool Brownies

    Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream

  1. 9

    Prepare Ice Cream Base

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 10

    Chill Mixture

    Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

  3. 11

    Churn Ice Cream

    Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

  4. 12

    Freeze Ice Cream

    Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

Warm Chocolate Sauce

  1. 13

    Heat Chocolate and Cream

    In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream. Stir frequently until the chocolate is melted and the sauce is smooth.

  2. 14

    Serve Warm

    Remove from heat and serve immediately over the brownies and ice cream.
