- baking powder
- salt
- unsweetened chocolate bar
- sugar
- brown sugar

Tools You Need to Make Brownies from Scratch

5 mixing bowls, at least 3 must be microwaveable
8×8 inch pan
Plastic bags
No-stick baking spray
Parchment paper
How to Make Ice Cream Sandwiches
Step 1. Make Brownies from Scratch
Prep your oven and pan. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray no-stick baking spray on the bottom of an 8 x 8 inch pan or line with parchment paper.
Make flour mixture. In a large mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
Mix the brownie ingredients. In a mixing bowl, mix together sugar, brown sugar and eggs. Set aside. In a separate microwavable bowl, melt the butter. Add melted butter to the bowl with sugar and eggs and combine. Pour in the melted chocolate and mix until combined. Fold in the flour mixture. Add the chocolate chips and mix well.
Bake the brownies. Pour into prepared pan and cook in oven for approximately 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. You do not want the brownies to be hard or crumbly. After the brownies are cooled completely, remove carefully from pan and place on parchment paper.
Step 2. Roll out the Brownies
Using a rolling pin, roll brownies until they are cookie height, about ¼ inch thick. Cut the rolled out brownies in half, so you have two large brownie pieces.
Step 3. Assemble the ice cream sandwiches
Spread ice cream on half of the brownie. Place the other half on top making one large brownie ice cream sandwich. Cut into 6 brownie ice cream sandwiches.
Step 4. Add toppings
Put almond bark into a small microwavable bowl and microwave in 20 second increments until melted. Pour melted almond bark into a plastic baggie and twist the end to close the bag. Cut a corner off of the bag and drizzle the almond bark over the brownies. Sprinkle the brownie ice cream sandwiches with additional chocolate chips.

- Eat right away, or place the brownie ice cream sandwiches into a freezer bag or freezer safe container and freeze until ready to enjoy.
