Melts in Your Mouth

M&M's, melt in your mouth, not in your hands. Do you remember that slogan, started in 1954, that describes the delicious chocolately goodness wrapped in a candy shell? Or did you know that M&M's were first introduced in1941 to American GI's serving in WWII? Ok Janet, why all this talk about M&M's? October 13th was National M&M Day and Michael's birthday! We may not have celebrated with a parade or a day off from work here at Bremer Farms, but it was a perfect time to enjoy this brownie ice cream sandwich, loaded with lots of yummy vanilla ice cream! Everyone loves ice cream and brownies. And with a little help from M&M’S® Brand Chocolate Candies, they’re inseparable best friends.

Michael, you are just as sweet as M&M's! Happy birthday, with love! 

brownie ice cream sandwich

• 1 box (19.9 oz. each) brownie mix
• 3 ½ cups vanilla ice cream
• ½ cup M&M’S® Brand Chocolate Candies
• 2 8-inch round cake pans
• Wax paper

1. Prepare the cake pans by greasing them and lining the bottoms (not the sides) with wax paper.
2. Prepare brownie mix according to the package directions. Divide batter between the two prepared cake pans.
3. Bake according to the package directions. Remove and cool completely.
4. Run a small paring knife around the edges of each brownie, loosening it from the pan.
5. Invert one layer onto a cookie sheet, and spread vanilla ice cream on top, coming right to the edge (you can slightly soften the ice cream first).
6. Place the other brownie layer on top, and press gently to secure. Place in the freezer until firm, about 2 hours.
7. Just before serving, press M&M’S® Brand Chocolate Candies into the ice cream.
8. Cut into thin wedges and serve right away.
