Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 2 cups raw walnuts
  • 1 cup raw almonds
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder, I used Dagoba
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
  • pinch of sea salt
  • 1-2 Tablespoons water
  • 2 1/2 cups ice cream, 3 cups for a really full tart, (I use either Coconut Bliss Cherry Amaretto flavor or my Homemade Coconut Ice Cream)
  • 1 pound cherries, pitted and halved, or berries of choice
  • 2 Tablespoons pure maple syrup, Grade A
  • 1 Tablespoon cocoa powder

Instruction

  • Soften the ice cream in the refrigerator for 20 minutes or so, or until you can spread the ice cream with a spatula.
  • While the ice cream is softening, place all the ingredients for the Brownie Crust in a food processor except the water. Secure the lid and turn the food processor on for 30 seconds to 1 minutes. The crust will start to clump and stick a bit when it’s ready. Turn the food processor off and scrape down the sides. Secure the lid again, turn the processor back on, and drizzle in 1 Tablespoon of the water to make a soft cookie dough like crust, if it’s still crumbly add a bit more water.
  • Line a 9″ tart pan with a removable bottom with plastic wrap. Scrape the brownie crust into the tart pan. Using a spatula and your hands, shape it to be as even as possible.
  • When the ice cream is soft enough, spread it evenly over the brownie crust. Cover the tart and freeze it until it’s completely frozen again, 3-4 hours.
  • When you’re ready to serve the tart, prepare the fruit topping. Mix together the maple syrup and cocoa powder to make the fudge sauce.
  • Arrange the fruit over the top of the ice cream tart and drizzle with the fudge sauce.
  • Serve immediately!
