Yield: 12 glorious servings
Ingredients
Brownies
- 4 ounces (1 stick) butter
- 4 ounces vegetable shortening (we used Crisco)
- 5 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 4 large eggs
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 9 ounces caramel sauce (we used Smucker's brand)
- 9 ounces hot fudge sauce (we used Smucker's brand)
- 2 cups Chocolate Whipped Cream
- 36 semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 cups Haagen-Dazs Vanilla Ice Cream
For serving each piece
- 1 1/2 tablespoons caramel sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons hot fudge sauce
- 2 heaping tablespoons Chocolate Whipped Cream
- 3 chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup ice cream
Instructions
- Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Line bottom of either a 10-inch springform or 9 x 13-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In top of a double boiler set over simmering water on a medium burner, melt butter, vegetable shortening and unsweetened chocolate, stirring constantly.
- Set aside to cool for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix eggs and salt on medium speed of an electric mixer about 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add sugar and beat on medium speed until well-combined.
- Add vanilla and chocolate mixture and mix on low speed until combined.
- Add flour and mix on low speed just until mixed. Do not over-mix.
- Pour batter into prepared pan, spreading evenly, and bake in center of oven 30 to 35 minutes, or until edges are firm but center is still a bit soft. A wooden pick inserted in center will have some batter clinging.
- Remove pan to a metal rack and let cool 1 hour.
- Remove brownie from pan.
- These can be made ahead and refrigerated. Best to bring to room temperature before serving. Use a serrated knife dipped in hot water to cut these fudgy wonders.
