Brownie Ice Cream Cake is one of those perfect desserts that mixes amazing flavors and textures. I haven’t met a person yet who doesn’t enjoy an ice cream cake. I also love this cake because it’s easy to make. Mostly just assembling layers. You can make this one as homemade or straight from the store as you want. Those are my favorite kind of recipes.
You can use a lot of different things for an Ice Cream Cake and everyone usually has something they vision. The important part is choosing a base that can hold up the ice cream. So a brownie like in this Brownie Ice Cream Cake is a perfect choice. You can also use a cookie, crust or a pound cake. The rest of the layers are where you can get creative.
I decided to use a hot fudge and Oreo crumble mix for the second layer. I love the mix of smooth fudge and crunchy cookies. This was always my favorite part of any Dairy Queen Ice Cream Cake.
Next is the Ice Cream. Any flavor you like. I used a classic Hiland Dairy Vanilla for this one, it’s my favorite vanilla. But any flavor would be great in this cake. Next time I may use Hiland Dairy Moose Tracks, it’s one of my favorites! Leave the ice cream out of the counter for abut 5 minutes before adding this layer, it helps in spreading it out if it’s a little soft.
A little (or a lot) of caramel sauce and then topped off with a homemade whipped cream. You can definitely use Cool Whip as well. Add some cookie crumbles to make it pretty and get to eating!

2. While the brownies are in the freezer, set the ice cream out on the counter so it softens a bit. Next scoop the ice cream onto the hot fudge/Oreo layer and use a spatula to spread the ice cream out in an even layer. Place back in the freezer for 15 minutes.
3. Take the cake out of the freezer and pour the caramel over the top of the ice cream. Spread this out into an even layer and place the cake back in the freezer for another 15 minutes.

5. Take the cake out of the freezer and spread the homemade whip cream (or Cool Whip) on the top and spread out evenly. Add Oreo crumbles to the top and then place back in the freezer until read to serve! Enjoy!
