Gourmet Brioche With Chocolate And Vanilla Ice Cream
- 8 slices of Sliced Brioche Loaf
- 100g dark or milk chocolate, chopped
- 4 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 pint (500ml) vanilla ice cream
- 1/4 cup (30g) almond flakes
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
DIRECTIONS
STEP 1
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over low heat until it begins to simmer.
STEP 2
Remove from heat and add the chopped chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
STEP 3
Place 4 slices of brioche on a work surface. Spread a layer of melted chocolate on each slice.
STEP 4
Top with the remaining 4 slices of brioche to create a sandwich with chocolate between each layer. Repeat until you have a stacked brioche sandwich with chocolate layers in between.
STEP 5
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the brioche stack in the skillet and cook each side until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Be careful not to press down too hard to avoid squeezing out the chocolate.
STEP 6
Place the toasted brioche stack on a serving plate. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Sprinkle with almond flakes. Optional: Dust with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
STEP 7
Serve immediately while the brioche is warm and the ice cream is cold.
Enjoy your meal !
