Peanut Butter Brownie Ripple Ice Cream

[1]

I’ve been playing around more with some more “no-churn” ice cream after making this Butterfinger Crunch [2] batch the other day and I love how easy it is to whip up. This time I decided to mix in two of my favorite things.

Creamy peanut butter and…

And chocolaty brownies! These are just little bitty brownie chunks that I cut up from some leftover brownie cookies I made recently. But make things even easier with brownie bites from the store if you don’t have any extra brownies hanging around the kitchen. Because let’s be serious. A batch of warm brownies really doesn’t stand a chance of making it into another dessert before I devour them.

For the vanilla base: I combined sweetened condensed milk with whipped cream and vanilla and then stirred in brownie pieces.

For the peanut butter ripple: I mixed sweetened condensed milk with warmed peanut butter before adding the whipped cream.

Layer all this yumminess in a 9X5 loaf pan or a container like the one I used [7] above with a lid.

Try putting the peanut butter mixture in a piping bag (I used one of my handy pink ones [8]) so you can easily swirl it in around the vanilla ice cream base.

Once the container is full, just drop it on the counter a few times so all the ingredients get packed in. Then freeze away and wait.
