3 large eggs, room temperature
⅔ cup all-purpose flour (87 g)
½ teaspoon fine sea salt or kosher salt
Ice Cream Components:
1.5 pints (0.75 quart) homemade or store-bought coffee ice cream
1 pint (0.5 quart) homemade or store-bought vanilla ice cream
2 tablespoons chocolate fudge, homemade or store-bought
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Line an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
- Melt 8 oz of chopped chocolate with granulated sugar, dark brown sugar, and butter over a double boiler until smooth. Cool slightly.
- Add eggs one at a time to the cooled chocolate mixture, whisking after each addition. Fold in flour, salt, and remaining chopped chocolate.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
- Place a cake ring mold on a parchment-lined baking sheet and line it with acetate. Place the cooled brownie in the mold.
- Spread coffee ice cream over the brownie. Freeze for 2-3 hours.
- Add vanilla ice cream on top, dollop with chocolate fudge, and swirl. Freeze for an additional 3 hours or overnight.
- Remove from the freezer, gently remove the mold and acetate. Slice and serve.
Notes
Allow the cake to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before slicing for easier cutting.
Use a warm knife to get clean cuts and prevent melting.
