Sometimes, I make things that I can’t believe I made. And totally by accident. I was cooking some awesome pumpkin swirled marble cake the other day and I ended-up with extra chocolate cake batter. I set it aside while I was making some other stuff and, somehow, a little got on a muffin tin and put in the oven–things were just chaos in my kitchen. Then, something magical happened. I put a couple of over-cooked thin pieces together with a bite of ice cream and the OMG-explosion-of-awesome in my mouth was just–I couldn’t even. So, I took that extra cake batter and whipped-in some extra ingredients and then all the sudden, there was a Crazy Good Ice Cream Sandwich sitting there waiting to be eaten. I could not have been more pleased. So I made a whole bunch of them. Until the ingredients ran out. LOL!
Ingredients for the Crazy Good Ice Cream Sandwich
Ice Cream
- 4 cans coconut milk
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tspn vanilla extract
Cookie/Brownie/Deliciousity
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tspn vanilla
- 2 tblspn coconut oil
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 tspn salt
- 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips
How to Make the Crazy Good Ice Cream Sandwich
- To make the ice cream, open your coconut milk cans and scoop the thick cream part into a bowl, trying to get as little of the coconut water as possible. Discard coconut water or just set aside for chugging later, whatever.
- Add the other ingredients.
- Mix on high 2-3 minutes with a hand mixer until it becomes stiff and fluffy.
- Place in the freezer while you make the cookie.
- To make the cookie, preheat oven to 350-degrees.
- Grease 9″ x 13″ cake pan. Set aside.
- Mix all the dry ingredients together in a medium bowl except for the chocolate chips.
- Mix all the wet ingredients together in another medium bowl.
- Mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients in 1/3 cup increments. Or, if you’re impatient, like me, just dump everything together.
- Blend until batter is smooth.
- Place chocolate chips in a small bowl and microwave in 10-second increments, stirring every 10 seconds, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Add melted chocolate chips to the cake batter and stir until mixed thoroughly.
- Pour mixture into grease cake pan and spread thinly across the entire bottom.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until its almost burnt. Almost–not quite.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes.
- Immediately remove from and and, using kitchen shears, cut brownies into ice cream sandwich-sized pieces.
- Get the ice cream out and place spoonfuls between two pieces of cookie.
- You may eat immediately or place in the freezer for later consumption.
- If desired, sprinkles may be added to the outside prior to consuming. Heh.
