Listen up! We're about to turn some simple ingredients into a delightful dessert that will impress your friends and family. This is a no-nonsense recipe for Ice Cream Dump Bread. Simple, fun, and absolutely indulgent. Let’s get to it!
Ingredients
- 4 cups of your favorite ice cream (softened)
- 1 loaf of fresh bread (white or brioche works best)
- 1/2 cup of chocolate chips (or your preferred mix-ins)
- 1/4 cup of caramel sauce (optional, but why not?)
- 1/4 cup of chopped nuts (optional, if you want a crunch)
- A pinch of sea salt (to elevate the flavors)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Get that oven fired up to 350°F (175°C). We want it hot and ready to transform this concoction into something spectacular.
- Prepare the Bread: Slice the loaf of bread into thick pieces, about 1-inch thick. Don’t be stingy! You want enough surface area to soak up all that glorious ice cream.
- Mix the Ice Cream: In a large bowl, dump in the softened ice cream. If you’re feeling adventurous, add in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts. Give it a good mix. It should be a beautiful, creamy mess!
- Layer the Bread: In a baking dish, start layering the bread slices. Don’t just throw them in haphazardly! Get some order in there. Once you have a layer, scoop a generous amount of the ice cream mixture on top. Repeat until you’ve used all the bread and ice cream.
- Drizzle with Caramel: If you’ve decided to use caramel sauce, now’s the time! Drizzle it all over the top of your creation. And don’t skimp on it!
- Sprinkle with Sea Salt: Just a pinch of sea salt over the top will bring out the sweetness beautifully. Trust me on this!
- Bake: Pop that dish into the preheated oven and let it bake for about 25-30 minutes. You want it golden and bubbling, not burnt to a crisp!
- Serve: Once it’s done, let it cool for a few minutes. Then, scoop it out and serve it up warm. It’s a gooey, delicious mess that everyone will love!
There you have it! A simple yet decadent dessert that's as fun to make as it is to eat. Don’t mess it up, and you’ll have a crowd-pleaser on your hands. Now, get in there and show that kitchen who’s boss!
