How to Make the Ultimate Ice Cream Brownie Sundae
Summer holidays are here, and with them comes the eternal challenge of finding fun activities that keep everyone happy. Thankfully, we have the answer: the ultimate Ice Cream Brownie Sundae.
Part dessert, part activity, and completely delicious, this easy summer treat combines creamy ice cream, fudgy brownies, and all your favourite toppings into one joy-filled creation. Perfect for family movie nights, garden parties, BBQs, or simply treating yourself on a sunny afternoon.
Step 1: Start with Your Favourite Ice Cream
Every great brownie sundae begins with a generous scoop of ice cream.
Whether you choose classic vanilla, indulgent chocolate, fruity strawberry, or a vegan alternative, the key is plenty of creamy goodness to balance the rich chocolate brownies.
Want to make it extra special? Add a swirl of caramel sauce, chocolate chips, or colourful sprinkles before moving onto the next step.
Step 2: Add the Brownies
Now for the star of the show. Take your favourite Sponge brownies and crumble them generously over the ice cream. The combination of cold ice cream and fudgy brownies is what transforms a simple dessert into something truly magical. Our favourite brownie flavours for sundaes include: Triple Chocolate Brownie Box, Salted Caramel Brownie Box, Mixed Brownie Box, Vegan Chocolate Brownie Box, Vegan Mixed Brownie Box, Gluten Free Mixed Brownie Box, The Legends Brownie Box, The Gluten Free Legends Brownie Box For extra indulgence, warm the brownies slightly before serving. The contrast between warm chocolate brownie and cold ice cream is hard to beat.
Step 3: Get Saucy
No brownie sundae is complete without a generous drizzle of sauce. Choose from: Rich chocolate sauce, Gooey salted caramel sauce, Sweet strawberry sauce or, if you're feeling adventurous, add all three. This is your sundae, after all.
Step 4: Add the Clouds of Happiness
Mini marshmallows are an essential topping in our book. Soft, fluffy, and delightfully sweet, they add texture, fun, and a little extra magic to every spoonful. Vegan marshmallows work brilliantly too, ensuring everyone can join the dessert party.
Step 5: Finish with a Crunch
The final touch is all about texture. Top your sundae with: Chopped hazelnuts, Salted peanuts, Crushed pistachios, Toasted almonds. The crunch perfectly complements the creamy ice cream and gooey brownies.
Make It Your Own
The beauty of an ice cream brownie sundae is that there are no rules. Add colourful sprinkles, fresh strawberries, chocolate flakes, crushed biscuits, or even chunks of your favourite Sponge cake. A slice of Chocolate Cake, Chocolate Caramel Fudge Cake, or Birthday Cake makes an indulgent addition for special occasions. For parties and family gatherings, create a DIY sundae station and let everyone build their own masterpiece.
