Receta Cake Boss GIVEAWAY and Espresso Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches (GF)
Last month the good folks at Cake Boss put out the word that they were looking for recipes to feature their products for a marketing campaign. It was going to be called #SummerSundae. Gee, great baking equipment, good people to work with, and the requirement to include ice cream? Oh yeah, they had me at Hello.
So I started thinking about things I could make with ice cream, wanting to create a dessert that could be customized easily, making it perfect for any occasion. Something fun and festive. And of course it needs to be gluten-free. Hmmm, what would I make?
I thought brownies would be perfect for ice cream sandwiches. Beautiful triangles of fudgy, chocolate-packed goodness combined with cold luscious ice cream is a heavenly match. You can use any flavor ice cream that you like, and this time the Caramel Swirl was calling my name!
Use the parchment paper to help lift the brownies out of the pan.
For this recipe I used two 8-inch square pans. I was able to easily cut the brownies into quarters and then each quarter in half to create eight perfect triangles. They were so rich that next time I will cut each triangle in half to create 16 smaller sandwiches. These would be adorable and perfect for smaller appetites, ladies luncheons or baby/wedding showers. They would also be great on a dessert buffet if you can keep them cold.
As expected, I loved the Cake Boss baking pans. I have enjoyed other products of theirs in the past and these were just as great. They are strong with no chance of warping. Made of heavy aluminum, they are resistant to rusting and are sturdy enough to handle even the heaviest recipes like lasagna. You are definitely going to love these pans!
The pans are so efficient in transferring heat that your baked goods may take a touch less time to fully bake. Watch things carefully toward the end and pull the pans out as soon as they are close to finished. They will continue to cook with the residual heat of the pans. You don’t want to risk overcooking and getting dried out baked goods.
You can make the components ahead and then set out all the fixin’s and let each person make their own, choosing the flavor of ice cream and which decorations they want to use. I had coconut, sliced almonds, chocolate chunks, chopped chocolate covered toffee, and colorful sprinkles. Very festive and most definitely fun!
And here is the best part … Cake Boss has offered to send a set of the same pans I used to one lucky winner!
