Brownie Pudding with Creamy Italian Gelato

After those amazing mushroom and swiss burgers on homemade pretzel buns a week ago Saturday, I found my way to also provide some dessert. I'd prepped the base and then churned and frozen a fresh batch of sweet cream gelato already, so it was waiting in the freezer...and it was an ideal accompaniment to a new recipe: brownie pudding, a rich and sweet chocolate inundation that reduced me to lip-smacking adorational mania and fealty to a god unknown. So what if I dribbled some of it on my new Carolina Tar Heels t-shirt? The pain of the stain cannot rival how hearty is this party of delectable goodness.
