Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches

So you know I made dairy-free chocolate ice cream.
And you also know I made simple vegan brownies.
Well then, may the two worlds collide into one delicious sandwich.

An ice cream sandwich, that is.

These little guys were a no brainer. I love ice cream sandwiches and always have. Ask anyone who saw me as a child with a constant ring of ice cream around my mouth.

Anytime I have ice cream in the house and anything half resembling a cookie, I mash them together. Don’t ask.

Because my brownies were tall, I  sliced them in half and sandwiched the ice cream in between. With thinner brownies you can simply stack two. But if you did that with these you would need four more mouths to get your lips around them. Dessert shouldn’t be that strenuous in my opinion.

These sandwiches are so simple to throw together and you can really use any ice cream or brownie you have on hand. I was tempted to add a layer of caramel in between but decided to be a purist for once and let them be. But next time, nuts, caramel, and sprinkles – I’m calling your name.

If you’re wondering why this brownie is so close to your face, blame it on THIS LENS – the love of my food photography life right now. Talk about details. You’d be wise to snatch one up. More deets on what’s in our camera bag here.
