Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 Large eggs
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.3 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Baking soda
• 4 cups Low sodium vanilla ice cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and add the sugar and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.

Step 3

Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.

Step 6

Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting them into small bite-sized pieces.

Step 9

Once the brownies are cooled and chopped, take the low sodium vanilla ice cream out of the freezer to soften slightly for about 5 minutes.

Step 10

In a large mixing bowl, gently fold the brownie pieces into the softened vanilla ice cream.

Step 11

Transfer the ice cream mixture into a freezer-safe container and smooth the top. Cover tightly and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours or until firm.

Step 12

Remove from freezer a few minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly, then scoop and enjoy your low sodium brownie ice cream.
