Black and White Brownie Ice Cream Cake

May 20, 2012 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 29 Comments

Load this ice cream cake with your favorite brownie and you will have everyone in line waiting for seconds. To cut down on the prep time, I softened Dreyers ice cream and then layered the flavors into a loaf pan and filled the vanilla portion with some of these brownies that I froze from my last batch.

Black and White Brownie Ice Cream Cake

I should have made homemade chocolate and vanilla ice cream, but hate to admit it – I was tired. The idea for the this cake has been sitting in my freezer for a few weeks now. The brownies were originally slated to go with homemade ice cream, but I was just too lazy to force myself to stand over a stove stirring eggs and cream to a perfect custard state. So after the brownies kept falling out every time the freezer door opened, I decided Dreyers was going to save me from complete laziness.

If you eat store bought ice cream (which I bet most of us do), you can definitely eat this and will probably love it twice as much since it has twice the dessert, right?

I am keeping this post and the next few brief, I’m working on a huge project that’s quite exciting and quite nerve racking all in the same breath. I’m hoping to share it with you all very soon, but until then – I leave you with a dessert that is fast and easy to make.

No recipe, just a few notes:

  • Choose any form or pan you prefer to create your cake. Line the pan with two to three layer of plastic wrap with a 3 inch over hang all the way around. Trust me you want at least 3 layers of plastic, since the plastic starts to tear when you pull out the ice cream cake.
  • Soften the ice cream to molding consistency. Spread first layer of chocolate onto bottom of pan. Spread a second layer of vanilla and press preferred brownies into layer. and place a second layer of vanilla on top. Finish with a final layer of chocolate.
  • Place fully assembled brownie ice cream cake into the freezer to set overnight.
  • When ready to serve, remove from freezer and press crushed Oreos onto sides.

    This looks amazingly delicious so that there is no need to apologize for not using home-made ice cream! I would dig into without thinking! 🙂

Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we go simple! Who else feels this? #ad Back to school has been off to a rocky start with mixed up carpool rides to missed days from being sick. Thankfully soups like this come together quickly and easily. All you need are just a handful of fresh ingredients and some pantry staples like @enjoyrealcoco Coconut Milk and @kettleandfire Bone Broth. Both of which are @TetraPakUSA  packaged. This means I can stock my pantry and not worry about rotating the food month-to-month. The aseptic packaging solution helps unopened food have a shelf life of six months or more without the need for refrigeration or preservatives. I’m telling you it’s the little things, like food packaging—something you don’t even think about most days, that ends up being the thing that can have the biggest impact sometimes! #ProtectsWhatsGood

Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumna Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumnal picnics? To kickstart the season, the kids and I are headed to the park to enjoy an Apple Spiced Cake and warm sips of Apple Cider sweetened with our favorite pantry staple, @truvia. #ad

Truvia Sweet Complete Sweeteners are zero-calorie and made with plant-based stevia sweetness. Whether you are using the All-Purpose, Brown, or Confectioners Sweetener, they measure cup-for-cup like sugar in your favorite seasonal baked goods! 

Apple Spiced Cake 
Serves 12 

3 cups (14 oz.) self-rising flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 
3 eggs
1 cup (6.25 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose Sweetener 
1 cup (5.75 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Brown Sweetener 
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup vegetable oil 
1 1/2 cups (5.5 oz.) peeled and shredded granny smith apple, about 2 large

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 10-12 cup bundt pan with non-stick spray. Set aside. 

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Set aside.

In a second large bowl, add the eggs, and beat until combined. Add both the Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose and Brown Sweeteners, whisk until fully incorporated. Pour in buttermilk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil, whisk until combined. 

Fold dry ingredients into the wet until smooth. Add the grated apples and fold until just combined. 

Pour batter in prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out free of wet batter. Transfer cake to a wire rack and let cool in the bundt pan for 20 minutes. Unmold cake and let cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, dust with Truvia Sweet Complete Confectioners Sweetener. Enjoy outside with a seasonal beverage!
