Fifth Avenue Grill Volcano Brownies
Ready In: 1 hr 20 mins
Serves: 12
Ingredients
- 4 ounces butter (1 stick)
- 4 ounces vegetable shortening (Crisco)
- 5 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 4 large eggs
- 1⁄8 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 9 ounces caramel sauce (Smucker's brand)
- 9 ounces hot fudge (Smucker's brand)
- 2 cups chocolate whipped cream
- 36 semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1⁄4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1⁄4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 cups hagen-dazs vanilla ice cream
Directions
- Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Line bottom of either a 10-inch springform or 9 x 13-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In top of a double boiler set over simmering water on a medium burner, melt butter, vegetable shortening and unsweetened chocolate, stirring constantly. Set aside to cool 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix eggs and salt on medium speed of an electric mixer about 3 minutes until light and fluffy. Add sugar and beat on medium speed until well-combined. Add vanilla and chocolate mixture and mix on low speed until combined.
- Add flour and mix on low speed just until mixed. Do not over-mix.
- Pour batter into prepared pan, spreading evenly, and bake in center of oven 30 to 35 minutes, or until edges are firm but center is still a bit soft. A wooden pick inserted in center will have some batter clinging. Remove pan to a metal rack and let cool 1 hour. Remove from pan.
- These can be made ahead and refrigerated. Best to bring to room temperature before serving. Use a serrated knife dipped in hot water to cut these fudgy wonders.
- Serve each piece with 1 1/2 tablespoons caramel sauce, 1 1/2 tablespoons hot fudge sauce, 2 heaping tablespoons Chocolate Whipped Cream, 3 chocolate chips, a teaspoon each confectioners sugar and cocoa powder and 1/4 cup ice cream.
- Makes 12 glorious servings.
