Ingredients

  • 1 (16.5 oz) box strawberry cake mix
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 egg
  • 1 (1.5 qt) chocolate chip ice cream or flavor of choice, softened
  • 1 (7.5 oz) Magic Shell Chocolate Fudge

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9" x 9" baking pan with cooking spray.
  • Add cake mix, salt, water, vegetable oil, and egg into a large mixing bowl. Whisk by hand until ingredients are well blended, about 50 strokes. Batter will be dense and thick. Do not over mix.
  • Scoop batter into the prepared baking pan. Spread even. Place in the oven. Bake for 23-28 minutes. Done when a toothpick inserted into brownie comes out clean. Allow to cool.
  • Cut out (and eat) any hard, crusty edges. Line a 1.5 quart mold with plastic wrap, allowing a few inches of excess wrap to drape over outside of the mold (I used two 6-inch cake pans). Break up pieces of brownies and press onto the bottom and sides of the mold to form a thin crust. Freeze for 1 hour to set.
  • To unmold, allow the cake to sit at room temperature for a two minutes. Run a knife around the edge to loosen cake. Lift out by pulling on the plastic wrap, or turn cake upside-down, tapping the mold to loosen the cake. Remove plastic wrap.
  • Place cake on a serving plate. Shake the Magic Shell bottle. Spread a generous amount on over of cake, working quickly before it solidifies.
