In honor of Mexican Independence Day #SundaySupper is cooking a Mexican Fiesta! I absolutely LOVE Mexican Food. I immediately thought of Horchata. I love mine ice cold, on crushed ice. So what could be better then ice cold Hotchata…Ice Cream Hortchata! And of course you have to have a churro with Horchata but I wanted something a little different. I also am a brownie lover, a nice scoop of Ice Cream on top of a warm brownie is heavenly. So…brownie churros, brilliant am I right?! I mean I don’t want to brag but tooting my horn here…TOOT TOOT! I went to look up a recipe for them and there were none! They were only a dessert at a restaurant from what I could find. So that made it even more exciting…how exactly should I make these brownies? My hubby helped out with this one…we talked it over and came up with a plan, we’d make churro mix and swirl it through the brownie mix sounds easy enough. While we were shopping we saw snickerdoodle cookie mix. That’s basically what a churro is, sugar cookies, perfect! So we made the brownie mix and the cookie mix. Then rolled up the cookie dough and placed them into the brownies and topped them with a little cinnamon. Here is my instagram of the brownies. They smelled so good!!
I found the recipe for the Horchata Ice Cream on Tastebook. We didn’t make the horchata fresh, since it was like a four day process and required things like cheese clothes and such… We got regular Horchata from the grocery store in the refrigerated section, usually near the OJ. We simmered it down a little since the recipe called for a concentrated Horchata. The Ice Cream was so much easier then I thought it would be! Click on link above to follow recipe for Ice Cream. It was actually really easy!
The finished product was absolutely amazing! We topped it with sliced almonds and some cinnamon. The Horchata Ice Cream and the Brownies together was the perfect combination, I gobbled mine up so fast. It will definitely be a new family recipe! Crazy Kid loves the ice cream maker, rolling the dough and of course eating the tastiness.
Had to add one more picture…better lighting 😉
