Since the fourth of July is coming up, I figured that I should make some kind of original patriotic dessert that no one else has seen before. Well, considering that below, you will find a recipe that goes something like, \u201cOpen a box of brownie mix and pour it into a bowl,\u201d that won\u2019t exactly be happening! (Even though patriotic brownies are super yummy!)<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have, however, taken a twist on the classic American brownie by adding little red, white, and blue mini M&M\u2019s into the mix.<\/strong> The real originality is in the way we decorated the brownie pan. We cut up fresh strawberries and bought some vanilla icing from the store, as well as some blueberries to make our own little flag on our brownies. <\/strong><\/p>\n

I have also included a homemade ice cream recipe that has been passed down through our family that is literally a bit of heaven in a bowl.<\/strong> That recipe will be delicious when eaten with some American-style brownies.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 This ice cream recipe has been made by my dad tons of times, and I\u2019ve made it several times myself over the years. My grandma whipped up this easy, 6-ingredient ice cream recipe a while ago, and my dad remembers making it when he was a kid with a hand-cranked ice cream maker<\/strong> before they got their electric one<\/p>\n

But be careful! It is delicious, but if you eat it too fast, it has been known to give a mean brain freeze!<\/strong> I love the creaminess and the way it tastes compared to store-bought \u201chomemade\u201d ice cream.\u00a0 It really does taste a lot better, although, don\u2019t get me wrong, the store-bought stuff is pretty great too!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I had a special guest to help me with this blog post. My friend Mia has a very creative imagination and she came up with the idea to make a flag with the brownies. It was a lot of fun, and I think we might have eaten more icing than we put on the brownies!<\/strong> She is very talented in the kitchen, and it was fun to have her help on this project.<\/p>\n

These brownies taste so good with the blueberries and strawberries on top. So grab a box of brownie mix from your local grocery store (or make your favorite homemade recipe), pop them in the oven, and then let\u2019s get started with some ice cream!<\/strong><\/p>\n
