Equipment

  • Cuisinart ice cream maker
  • Medium saucepan
  • Whisk
  • Mixing bowl
  • Airtight container for storage

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 1/2 cups brownie chunks
  • 1/2 cup chocolate fudge sauce slightly warmed

Instructions
 

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, milk, sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Heat over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the sugar and cocoa have dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Do not let it boil.
  • Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
  • Pour the chilled mixture into the pre-frozen bowl of your Cuisinart ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually for 20-30 minutes.
  • During the last few minutes of churning, add the brownie chunks.
  • Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container, swirling in the slightly warmed chocolate fudge sauce as you go. Freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

Notes

  • You can use store-bought brownies, or make your own using your favorite recipe.
  • For a less sweet ice cream, consider using bittersweet or dark chocolate fudge sauce.
