Whether you’re hosting a big sports gathering or simply craving something over-the-top, these brownie nachos will turn any living room into a cheering stadium.
Ingredients
- 1 box of brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
- 8 ounces chocolate chips (milk, dark, or a mix)
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 bag of cinnamon-sugar tortilla chips (or sweet pita chips)
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream (softened slightly)
- Assorted toppings: chopped nuts, sprinkles, caramel sauce, maraschino cherries
Instructions
Start by baking your favorite brownie mix in a rectangular baking dish according to the package directions. While the brownies are in the oven, prepare the chocolate drizzle by warming chocolate chips and butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir gently until melted and smooth. Carefully whisk in the heavy cream until a velvety sauce forms. Keep warm on low heat, stirring occasionally.
Once your brownies are fully cooked, allow them to cool slightly. Then, cut them into bite-sized squares or triangle “chips.” Arrange half of the cinnamon-sugar tortilla chips on a large platter or sheet pan. Layer on half of the brownie pieces, followed by a generous swirl of your warm chocolate sauce. Repeat the layering with the remaining tortilla chips and brownies, then finish it all with scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Sprinkle on your favorite toppings. Chopped nuts add a satisfying crunch, while a drizzle of caramel sauce amps up the decadence. A scattering of sprinkles lends a festive finish, and don’t forget those cherries on top as the literal cherry on this game-day dessert.
To serve, bring the platter straight to the coffee table or picnic table—people will have a blast diving in, using a spoon or just grabbing a brownie-tortilla scoop.
Whether you’re rooting for your team, celebrating a birthday, or craving something truly unforgettable, these Epic Brownie Sundae Nachos are a guaranteed score. The easy-to-find ingredients make it accessible to anyone, and you can swap out toppings like fresh fruit slices, extra chocolate candies, or even a dusting of powdered sugar for a lighter finish. This recipe is especially great for those who love sharing sweet treats in a casual, crowd-pleasing way. Enjoy!
