Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Brownie
- Prepare the brownie mix according to the package instructions, or use your favorite homemade brownie recipe. This typically involves mixing eggs, oil, and water into the brownie mix until you achieve a smooth batter.
- Bake the brownies in the oven as directed on the package or according to your homemade recipe. Make sure to check for doneness by inserting a toothpick—when it comes out clean, the brownies are ready.
- Once baked, allow the brownies to cool completely on a wire rack. This ensures that the brownies set properly and don’t crumble when cut into pieces.
- After cooling, cut the brownies into small cubes or bite-sized pieces. These pieces will form the base layer for your sundae cups, so make sure they are easy to scoop up with a spoon.
2️⃣ Assemble the Sundae Cups
- Place a layer of the freshly cut brownie pieces in the bottom of each cup. You can use small dessert cups, mason jars, or even large glass bowls depending on your preference. The brownie layer serves as the rich, chocolatey foundation for the sundae.
- Add a generous scoop (or 2–3 scoops) of your favorite ice cream on top of the brownie layer. Vanilla, chocolate, or even a swirl of both flavors work wonderfully for this dessert. Let the ice cream soften slightly for easier scooping, especially if it’s been in the freezer for a while.
- Pour warm chocolate sauce over the ice cream and brownies. The warm sauce will melt slightly into the ice cream, creating a luscious, gooey layer of chocolatey goodness. You can adjust the amount of sauce to your taste—more sauce means more decadence!
- If desired, garnish the sundaes with whipped cream, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor. You can also drizzle some caramel sauce on top for an extra indulgent touch.
- If you like, you can repeat the layers. Add another layer of brownie pieces, followed by more ice cream and chocolate sauce. This gives each spoonful an even richer combination of flavors!
3️⃣ Serving
- Serve the Brownie Sundae Cups immediately, and enjoy them while the ice cream is still soft and the sauce is warm for the best experience.
- If you prefer, you can chill the assembled sundae cups in the refrigerator for a few hours. This allows the flavors to meld together, giving the dessert a richer, more developed taste.
- Every spoonful will be a heavenly mix of brownie, ice cream, and chocolate sauce, making each bite a delightful indulgence!
Enjoy your irresistible Brownie Sundae Cups! They’re the perfect treat for any occasion, combining the rich flavors of chocolate and ice cream in a fun, easy-to-serve way.
