Alternative Ingredient Suggestions
If you’re missing some ingredients or need alternatives, here are a few suggestions:
- Coconut Whip: You can swap this with a homemade cashew cream or store-bought whipped coconut cream if you prefer.
- Vegan Brownie Chunks: If you don’t have homemade vegan brownies, you can use store-bought ones, or even vegan cookies for a different texture.
- Fresh Cherries: Swap the fresh cherries with raspberries or strawberries for a fruity twist.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Brownies: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, and spray it with non-stick cooking spray. In a stand mixer, beat the aquafaba (chickpea brine) and brown sugar until it forms a thick, shiny, voluminous mixture. This should form a ribbon when the whisk is lifted.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil, stirring until fully combined. Let it cool slightly before using.
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, sea salt, and baking soda in a separate bowl.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gently fold the melted chocolate mixture into the whipped aquafaba and sugar mixture. Then, gradually mix in the sifted dry ingredients, stirring until you get a thick batter. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake the Brownies: Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them into chunks.
- Assemble the Sundae: Scoop three large servings of So Delicious Dark Chocolatey Truffle Cashewmilk Frozen Dessert into a waffle bowl. Add a generous handful of brownie chunks on top, followed by a dollop of coconut whip, chocolate shavings, and fresh pitted cherries.
Tips & Tricks
- Checking for Doneness: When baking the brownies, ensure they are fully cooled before cutting them into chunks. This helps maintain their chewy texture.
- Texture Enhancements: For a firmer consistency, you can refrigerate the brownies before cutting them into chunks.
- Storage: Leftover brownies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 1 week in the refrigerator.

This vegan chocolate brownie sundae pairs beautifully with a cup of hot coffee or a glass of chilled almond milk.

FAQ
1. Can I make this Vegan Chocolate Brownie Sundae gluten-free?
Yes, you can easily make this sundae gluten-free by using a gluten-free flour blend for the brownies. Be sure to double-check that the frozen dessert and toppings are also gluten-free, as some store-bought versions may contain gluten.
2. How can I make the brownies more fudgy?
To make the brownies fudgier, you can add a bit more coconut oil or use less flour. Additionally, slightly underbaking them can give them a dense, gooey texture. Just ensure they are firm enough to hold together when cut into chunks.
3. Can I use non-dairy whipped cream instead of coconut whip?
Absolutely! If you prefer a different flavor, you can use any non-dairy whipped cream in place of coconut whip. Almond, soy, or oat-based whipped creams are great alternatives and will work well with the other ingredients in the sundae.
4. Can I store the Vegan Chocolate Brownie Sundae leftovers?
While it’s best enjoyed fresh, you can store the components of the sundae separately. Keep the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, the frozen dessert in the freezer, and the whipped cream in the fridge for up to 1 week. Assemble the sundae just before serving for the best texture and taste.
