    Mound ice cream onto candy cane-shaped brownie; spread evenly. Top with whipped topping, spreading evenly over top and sides. Sprinkle crushed candy diagonally on whipped topping to resemble candy cane. Cover loosely with foil; freeze at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.

  • Prepare ice cream parfaits with any remaining brownies. Cut them into tiny squares and layer them in tall glasses with additional ice cream, whipped topping and crushed candy canes. For particularly pretty parfaits, layer the ingredients twice.
  • Prepare this recipe one day in advance, cover loosely with foil and freeze.
