These delicious little Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches are JUST the thing, with chewy brownies for the outside, and a rich and creamy gelato for the center. Make a big batch ready for a sweet treat after dinner!
This is a sponsored post for HemisFares™ brand that is available exclusively at Kroger family of stores. All opinions are honest and 100% my own.
I am SO excited to share this recipe with you all! Chewy brownies with a creamy filling that you can easily switch up…. I used a Stracciatella, but just imagine Pistachio, Strawberry, Cappuccino, Hazelnut or even Chocolate Gelato in the center!! YUM!
Making these does take a bit of work – it takes a few steps and a bit of waiting, but trust me – it’s worth the wait.
Just mix up your brownie batter, bake it in a 9 x 13 pan, and let them cool. Make a cut down the center, and freeze for a bit until super cold. Grab your gelato, and spread it on one half, and top with the other half of the brownie. Freeze until firm, then cut. You can make them triangles, or rectangles – even stars if you REALLY wanted to….
If you wanted to get fancy, you could make your brownies from scratch. Or you could just… not. I’m not judging!
I’m working with HemisFares again – a new signature brand by Kroger (for me, found in Fry’s grocery stores), and will be sharing a few more things from the new collection over the next few months (see my Southwestern Pasta Salad with Lime Vinaigrette Dressing for another great idea using an amazing line of products!)
HemisFares is all about bringing the absolute best from a country back to your local Kroger family of stores. Culinary explorers traveled to some of the most food-rich areas of the globe to create a guided tour of the best tastes on earth.

making your own ice cream sandwiches – good knowing what’s in them. I’m thinking I’d be drizzling some chocolate syrup over top and be eating with a spoon though… mm mmm
