    I'm not super experienced when it comes to gluten-free baking but I recently started dabbling in it when I found out that my local Trader Joe's sells gluten-free all purpose flour. It didn't work so well when I tried making cookies the first time, they were sandy and not that pleasant. Since that fail I've tried a few more times and i'm so happy to say these brownies were such a success! When frozen they remain soft and delicious, just be sure not to over-bake them. I know you're gonna enjoy these Gluten-Free Vegan Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches so let's get to it!

    Let's break it down:

    You might think that these are a lot of work but honestly, they couldn't be easier! Whip up a very simple brownie batter and bake for 20-25 minutes. Let the brownies cool completely or even overnight in the freezer if you have the time. Then, fill the center with your favorite vegan vanilla bean ice cream (or get fancy and pick a different flavor) and freeze overnight. The hardest part is giving these time to freeze completely before serving. But trust me, they are worth it!

    What You Will Need For These Gluten-Free Vegan Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches

    Main Ingredients:

    • GF Flour
    • Cocoa Powder
    • Brown Sugar
    • Dark Chocolate
    • Ice Cream

    Substitutions:

    GF All Purpose Flour: I used a gluten-free all purpose flour from Trader Joe's but any gluten-free all purpose mix will do. I haven't tested this recipe with regular white all purpose flour but if you do, let me know how it goes.

    Dark Chocolate: If you're not a fan of dark chocolate, use semi-sweet chocolate. As long as it's vegan!

    How To Make The Best Gluten-Free Vegan Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches

    I used a dark 85% chocolate in this recipe because I adore bitter dark chocolate but feel free to use any percentage of dark chocolate you enjoy most. Just check the ingredients for milk!

    Have patience! Let the brownies cool completely or even freeze overnight (if time permits) BEFORE adding the ice cream and then letting it freeze again for a few hours or overnight.
