Mint Choc Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches

  1. To make the brownie layers: Whizz all the ingredients in your food processor until combined. You may need to add a little water to make the mixture turn around but make sure it's not too wet. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up a little. Then divide the mixture into two and roll each out separately with a rolling pin between two pieces of greaseproof paper to about 1cm (1/3 inch) thick. Leave them in between the papers and place on a flat tray in the freezer for a few hours to set.
  2. To make the ice cream layer: Whizz all the ingredients except the cacao nibs in your blender or food processor until really smooth. Place in a container into the freezer for an hour until the ice cream begins to thicken and set. Remove it before it hardens completely and stir through the cacao nibs (this way they won't sink to the bottom as the ice cream is partially set). Now pour the ice cream mixture into a plastic-wrap lined rectangular tray or dish and freeze for at least 4 hours.
  3. To assemble: Decide what shape you'd like to make your ice cream sandwiches (I did think about a hexagon, but then I couldn't be bothered. There was ice cream: I wanted to eat it). Use a piece of paper as a template to cut your brownie slices out with a sharp knife and group into twos. Use the same process for cutting the ice cream, cutting one ice cream slab for every two brownie slices. Sandwich the ice cream between two brownies and you're done! Store any extras in the freezer wrapped in greaseproof paper inside an airtight container.
