Decadent and delicious Raspberry Brownie Ice Cream is a recipe your whole family will enjoy. Chunks of brownie and whole raspberries are surrounded by homemade vanilla ice cream in this must-have dessert.

I’m falling in love with ice cream making. Homemade ice cream allows me to be in charge of the ingredients going into the ice cream, so I can know that it only has good quality ingredients.

Some other delicious ice cream recipes I’ve shared here so far are:

Blackberry Margarita Ice Cream

More will be coming soon, I hope, but currently it’s looking like I’ve got a bit of an obsession with berries in my ice cream!

Do I need an ice cream maker to make this recipe?

I recommend it. It doesn’t have to be a fancy, expensive contraption. My ice cream maker is extremely basic. This is the maker I have, though unfortunately it’s out of stock right now. It’s not incredible, but it’s cheap and does the job.

I hope to get the KitchenAid attachment in the future, but for now, this basic unit is making all the ice cream recipes I share here.

Can I make Raspberry Brownie Ice Cream low-fat?

In order to make a good, creamy ice cream, you need cream. The real stuff, not skim milk. You definitely can substitute lower-fat options, but you will likely end up with a more icy ice cream, instead of a creamy one.

Can I make Raspberry Brownie Ice Cream sugar-free?

Although I haven’t tried this, I’m sure it could be done. However, since I don’t have much experience using sugar alternatives, I can’t give you any direction on this one.

If you decide to make this sugar-free, I would love for you to share in the comments what you did, and how it turned out!

Do I have to bake brownies for Raspberry Brownie Ice Cream?

Nope. You can definitely just pick up a pack of pre-made brownies at the store. However, if you make this with homemade brownies it’s going to be so much better!

I used my Go-To Brownie Recipe, which is the only recipe I use anymore. It’s just as easy as making brownies from a boxed mix, but it’s so much tastier!
