Peppermint Brownie À La Mode
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup warm fat-free milk
- 2 teaspoons instant coffee
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- Cooking spray
- 4 cups reduced-fat chocolate chip ice cream (such as Healthy Choice), softened
- 4 candy canes (2 ounces), coarsely chopped
- 2 teaspoons powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped candy canes (optional)
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0.
- Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl; stir with a whisk. Set aside.
- Combine fat-free milk, instant coffee, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add sugar and eggs, stirring with a whisk until well combined. In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt butter and chocolate chips at high in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until completely melted. Add chocolate mixture to egg mixture, stirring with a whisk until well combined.
- Fold egg mixture into flour mixture, stirring just until moist. Spread batter into an 8-inch square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350u0b0 for 20 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into 12 pieces.
- Place ice cream in a large bowl. Add 4 coarsely chopped candy canes to ice cream, stirring with a wooden spoon until well combined. Return to freezer until ready to serve.
- Place 1 brownie on a plate; sprinkle with about 1/8 teaspoon powdered sugar. Top with 1/3 cup ice cream. Garnish with additional candy cane pieces, if desired.
