Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 1 (14 oz) can Sweetened Condensed Milk: This is the secret ingredient for a creamy, silky texture without the need for churning. You can substitute it with homemade sweetened condensed milk or a dairy-free version if desired.

  • 1/2 cup Cocoa Powder: Unsweetened cocoa powder gives that deep chocolate flavor. Try to use high-quality brands for an intense taste; Dutch-processed cocoa can also be a great option if you want a smoother chocolatey profile.

  • 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream: For that light and fluffy texture, heavy whipping cream is essential. Make sure it’s cold for the best results—this will really help it whip up beautifully.

  • 1 (12 oz) jar Hot Fudge Sauce, Softened: This rich sauce brings a deep chocolate flavor and a gooey consistency that elevates the ice cream. If you’re feeling adventurous, try making your own fudge sauce!

  • Store Bought Bakery Brownies, Cubed: The chewy, fudgy brownie bits are what take this recipe to the next level. Use your favorite bakery brownies or homemade ones if you have a recipe you love!

How to Make No Churn Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream

  1. Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, pour in 2 cups of heavy whipping cream. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium speed until soft peaks form—this should take about 3-5 minutes.

  2. Combine Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the 1 (14 oz) can of sweetened condensed milk and 1/2 cup cocoa powder. Mix until fully incorporated and smooth. This will create a rich chocolate base.

  3. Fold Mixtures Together: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cocoa and condensed milk mixture using a spatula. Make sure not to deflate the whipped cream too much; it should remain fluffy.

  4. Add Fudge Sauce: Pour the softened 1 (12 oz) jar of hot fudge sauce into the mixture. Lightly swirl it through the ice cream mixture; you want streaks of fudge rather than entirely blended.

  5. Fold in Brownies: Carefully fold in the cubed brownie pieces. Be gentle to maintain the integrity of the brownie chunks.

  6. Transfer to Container: Spoon the mixture into an airtight container. Spread it flat and smooth out the top.

  7. Freeze: Cover the container securely with a lid or plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or until solid.

  8. Scoop and Serve: Once it’s fully frozen, it’s time to dig in! Use a sturdy ice cream scoop to serve your delightful No Churn Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream.

Storing & Reheating

You can store your homemade ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. If you notice it starting to lose texture, a quick 5 to 10-minute rest at room temperature can help it soften up for easier scooping. It’s best to avoid leaving it at room temperature for long to maintain its creamy consistency.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

  • Be careful not to overwhip the cream; once it forms stiff peaks, stop whipping.
  • Make sure your brownie pieces are not too large; bite-sized chunks ensure distribution throughout the ice cream.
  • If the fudge sauce is too thick, warm it slightly in the microwave to make folding easier.
  • Consider adding chocolate chips for an extra chocolatey crunch if you’re a true chocolate lover.

This No Churn Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream is an irresistible treat that meets all your chocolate cravings head-on. The combination of light and fluffy ice cream with rich fudgy swirls and brownie bites will leave you feeling satisfied. Plus, it’s easy to make anytime your sweet tooth calls. Enjoy experimenting with toppings and mix-ins for an even more personalized touch!

The ice cream needs a minimum of 4 hours to properly freeze. For best results, however, letting it freeze overnight is ideal.

Can I make this dairy-free?

If your ice cream is too hard once frozen, let it sit at room temperature for about 5 to 10 minutes before scooping. This will help soften it just enough for easier serving. Enjoy!
