Triple Mint Ice Cream Dessert

Triple Mint Ice Cream Dessert
servings: 10

1 box brownie mix
1 quart mint chocolate chip ice cream
1 1/2 cups coarsely crushed candy canes
1 1/2 chopped layered chocolate-mint candies

1. Bake brownie mix as directed on box, pouring mix into 8-inch springform pan. Remove from oven and chill for 1 hour.
2. In a large chilled bowl, soften ice cream by using a wooden spoon to stir and press ice cream against the side of bowl. Stir until soft but not melted. Stir in 3/4 cup of candy canes and 3/4 cup of chocolate mint candies. Quickly spoon softened ice cream into the springform pan. Cover & freeze 1 hour or more.
3. Sprinkle top with remaining candy canes and mint candies. Cover and freeze for several hours or overnight until firm.
4. To serve, remove dessert from freezer. Let stand 10-15 minutes before serving.

This was the WOW dessert that I brought to Thanksgiving this year. A few extra pointers: this is really rich so cut in slices smaller than normal, also I would suggest cutting and put on pie plates all at the same time, then put these plates in freezer so they are ready when the crowd is.

I got this recipe from Better Homes & Garden's website HERE. I made a few changes but still tasted amazing! Enjoy!
