Description

A warm, gooey chocolate brownie baked in a skillet, topped with vanilla ice cream and hot fudge sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 23 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 1/3 cup hot fudge sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • Optional: chocolate syrup or melted milk chocolate for drizzle
  • Optional: pinch of flaky salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease two 6-inch mini cast iron skillets (or use one 8-inch skillet for sharing).
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl (or small saucepan), melt butter + chocolate chips until smooth.
  3. Whisk in granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla, whisking until glossy.
  4. Stir in flour, cocoa powder, and salt just until combined (don’t overmix).
  5. Spoon batter into the skillet(s) and smooth the top.
  6. Bake 16–20 minutes (mini skillets) or 20–24 minutes (8-inch) until the edges are set and the center is still slightly soft.
  7. Top warm brownie with vanilla ice cream. Pour hot fudge over the scoop and add chocolate drizzle. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Best Texture Tip: Pull brownies when the center is still a little soft—carryover heat keeps them perfectly gooey
  • Storage: Store leftover brownie (without ice cream) covered up to 2 days
  • Reheat: Warm in oven at 300°F for 8–10 minutes or microwave 15–20 seconds, then add ice cream
