Step 1: Easy Individual Ice Cream Cakes Pirouette Cookies
Begin by making Duncan Hines brownies in a 9 x 13 pan. Make them in the chocolate fudge style. This makes this dessert decadent.
Step 2: Break the Pirouette Cookies in Half Add Cookies to the Side of the Pan
While the chocolate fudge brownies are baking, begin breaking the Pirouette Cookies. I found these at Walmart in case you have difficulty finding Piroutte cookies. Make these the height of your springform pan.
Step 3: Adding the Fudge Brownies to the Bottom of the Pan
After the brownies have cooled slightly, begin cutting pieces to fit a single size springform pan. Press lightly into the bottom of the pan.
Generally, I enjoy serving individual desserts after a large meal.

Step 4: Adding Pirouette Cookies to the Sides of Mini Ice Cream Cakes
Next, lightly press the Pirouette cookies into the brownie filling on the edge, and freeze overnight. Freezing these mini ice cream cakes overnight will also make them very cold, so the cookies are frozen into the chocolate fudge brownie.
Step 5: Brownie Crumble Sprinkle on the Top
Also, any leftover brownies are placed into a small food processor to grind. After grinding them into brownie crumbles, place them in a bowl in the refrigerator overnight. I also did this because the brownies are fudgy and needed to stiffen. The next day, remove them and they will be hard. Don’t be concerned. Move the brownie cookie crumbles around with a spoon slightly and let them sit at room temperature.
Step 6: Add the Ice Cream to the Top
Next, I began adding my extra creamy Breyers vanilla ice cream. Use a drinking glass to press the ice cream slightly to flatten it. Continue adding extra ice cream until the mini ice cakes are full. Also, smooth the extra ice cream with the back of a small spoon.
If you are using vanilla ice cream, I highly recommend this version. It’s so creamy and Delicious!
Step 5: Sprinkle the Brownie Cookie Crumbles to the Tops of the Mini Ice Cream Cakes
Lastly, sprinkle the tops with the ground-up brownie cookie crumbles and freeze the mini ice cream cakes overnight.
Serve and enjoy these delicious, easy, decadent individual ice cream cakes.
I hope you enjoyed seeing this easy individual ice cream cake, Pirouette cookies, and make this for one of your gatherings.

- Break the Pirouette cookies in half while the brownies are cooling
- Once the brownies are cooled cut them to fit the inside of the mini springform cake pans
- Fill the side of the pans with the Pirouette cookies and freeze them overnight to make them solid. This is the best way to keep this stable when adding the ice cream
- Next add a scoop of ice cream and smooth with the bottom of a glass
- After adding the first scoop of ice cream to all the pans. Fill them all up to the top and smooth again with the bottom of a glass
- Grind the leftover brownie pieces in a mini food processor. the crumbs will be stored in the refrigerator overnight
- Take these out the next day to get to room temperature and break them apart with a spoon. This will make crumbs break apart.
- Sprinkle the tops of the cakes with the crumbles and return to the freezer. Keep these in the freezer until you are ready to serve these to guests.
- Remove each cake from the springform pans before serving.
