Fudgy Brownie Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches – Eat More Chocolate Eat More Chocolate

Ingredients

• 10 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 1/4 sticks), melted
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 2 tablespoons brewed coffee (leftover from the morning brew is fine), optional but recommend to enhance chocolate flavor and does not make brownies taste like coffee
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (natural or Dutch-process, I used Hershey's natural)
• 1 teaspoon instant espresso granules, optional but recommend to enhance chocolate flavor and does not make brownies taste like coffee
• 1/4 teaspoon salt, optional and to taste
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 of one half-gallon Dreyer's Slow Churned Ice Cream with Half the Fat in Cookie Dough flavor (about 4 cups), slightly softened
• 1 batch Raw Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls (gluten-free) - I used mini-chocolate chips rather than regular-sized
