Ice Cream Sundae

I mixed up my favorite brownies. I like to use dark cocoa but it's not necessary.

The wax paper was a total fail. Do NOT use wax paper. 

Thank you.

After peeling off the wax paper I dug through my tupperware drawer looking for something small and round to cut out the brownies. A salt and pepper shaker was perfect!

I soon left Mia take over the cutting out job.

And of course the next steps involve scooping ice cream and cooled off hot fudge. 

I added some cookie crumbs on top of the hot fudge layer. Yum. 

The ice cream was melting pretty fast so I forgot to take pictures. It would be better to assemble 12 at a time instead of 36. 

Olive was a big help by being sweet. 

Nate was helping too. We need snow removal.

Here we go!

Yum.

Don't forget the layer of cool whip.

We were the last stop for a progressive supper with our Youth Group.

It’d also be great to make these using black cocoa.
