How can I give ice cream and a box of brownie mix an extra wow-factor? Betty Crocker’s Answer: Individual Brownie Alaskas.
This week we’re baking a twist on a classic mid-century dessert, the Baked Alaska. Once a decadent and expensive dish at restaurants, Betty makes it easy to whip up at home using boxed brownie mix, strawberry ice cream, and an easy meringue, which thanks to science, insulates the ice cream in the oven, so it browns nicely without melting what’s inside!
Of course, we explore the origin of Baked Alaska, which was first created in a laboratory, very far away from our northernmost state.
Happy Homemaking!
