This is a great dessert to vary, according to your cravings and mood, with different flavors of ice cream and sauces. I love the uncomplicated taste of vanilla bean ice cream with brownies, but go for any of your favorite flavors. The Caramel Sauce adds another dimension of flavor and color to the chocolate and vanilla, but many other traditional ice cream sauces will also work. I like to spoon a little of the sauce between the brownies and ice cream to prevent the brownie layer from tasting too dry. The sauce helps pack it together with a nice gooey consistency, so that it's not too much of a textural contrast from the ice cream.

Steps:
- Place 1/4 cup brownies in the bottom of each of 6 parfait glasses.
- Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of the Caramel Sauce into each glass, then scoop half the pint of ice cream evenly among the glasses. Drizzle with another tablespoon of sauce.
- Repeat with one more layer of brownies, caramel, ice cream, and caramel sauce. Top each parfait with a scoop of whipped cream and serve immediately.
- Try the parfait with Peanut Butter Brownies (page 72), chocolate or banana ice cream, and Caramel Sauce. Or try the Mint Swirl Brownies (page 74) with mint ice cream and chocolate fondue (see Chocolate Cookie Sticks with Fondue, page 56).
