Luckily brownies fix everything, right?

Rich, fudgy warm chocolate brownie topped with creamy mint ice cream.

You can top your brownie with your choice of ice cream. We are die hard mint ice cream fans so of course we went with mint ice cream.
Eating our chocolate chips or raw cacao nibs plain out of the bag doesn’t always cut it. Sometimes we want something a little more.  Do you ever get that feeling that you want a sweet treat but are too tired to really ‘make’ something. You’re not alone.

Even though we love making recipes sometimes it is nice to have something that is super simple to make that only takes a few minutes but yet looks like it took all day to make.

Yum!
I made this delicious brownie for myself tonight. Unfortunately, my peppermint extract bottle was empty! How did that happen?! So I used vanilla instead and chocolate protein powder. It was so fudgy and I topped it with a little whip cream.
Thanks for the treat!

Mmmmm! This is so perfect.
For the amount of batter this makes, do you think it would portion off into two ramekins? I was thinking to bake it that way instead of using a small cast iron (which I wish I had, just for the cuteness of it!) because that what I have on hand.

Thanks! 🙂

purelytwins February 12, 2015 - 4:22 pm

Yes you can make two ramekins with the batter of one cake. xo

Do you know the Nutritional count on this. It looks amazing!! And I love anything with chcolate

not really sure but this is an estimate – about 400cals, 6-8g protein, about 12g fat and 17g carbs give or take. does not include a scoop of ice cream.

Jojo @ Run Fast Eat Lots February 12, 2015 - 11:02 pm

Bischa Johannessen January 8, 2017 - 10:13 am

4 tablespoons of my cacao is 2 Oz , should I go for 4tbsp or 1 oz ?
2 tbsp protein also weighs 1 oz and not 1/2 oz as written ?? What should i go for?
Thanks

purelytwins January 15, 2017 - 11:18 am

We suggest using 1oz for the cacao, and for our protein powder it is 1/2 oz so we suggest following the weight.
