The first Hot Fudge Sundae appeared in 1906 at an ice cream parlor in Hollywood, and has since evolved into dozens of variations of the classic. Adding a fresh brownie to the bottom of the sundae dish is the perfect way to make the dessert truly decadent! Here's how to make an indulgent hot fudge brownie sundae.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Favorite brownie mix
  • 8 oz. frozen whipped cream
  • 6 oz. semisweet baking chocolate
  • 2 tbs. butter
  • 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 gallon French vanilla ice cream
  1. Step 1

    Bake pan of brownies. Follow directions on package to make thick fudge brownies, preferably in an 8-by-8 or 9-by-13 inch pan. Set aside to cool, and cut into blocks while still warm.
