Barclays Gridlock
1 recipe brownies (please send us request)
1 recipe coffee ice cream (please send us request)
½ cup roasted salted peanuts
¼ cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup chocolate covered pretzels, chopped
1. Prepare the brownies according to the recipe directions. Let cool, then chop them into bite-size pieces. Freeze until ready to use.
2. Prepare the coffee ice cream according to the recipe directions. Transfer the cooled base to an ice cream maker and churn it according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. In a small bowl, toss together the peanuts, chocolate chips, pretzels, and brownie pieces and toss to combine.
4. Transfer the ice cream to a storage container, folding in the peanut mixture as you do. Use as
much of the peanut mixture as you want; you won’t necessarily need the whole batch. Serve
immediately or harden in your freezer for 8 to 12 hours for a more scoopable ice cream.
