Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a square 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Stir until there are no lumps, and the batter is smooth.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Once baked, allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into large squares.
To assemble, stack three brownie squares in the center of a large serving plate to create a 'volcano' structure.
Add four scoops of vanilla ice cream around the base of the brownie stack.
Spray whipped cream generously over the top of the brownie mountain and around the ice cream scoops.
Drizzle chocolate syrup and caramel sauce over the entire dessert, letting it drip artistically down the sides of the brownies and ice cream.
Garnish with chocolate sprinkles, if desired.
For an extra dramatic flair, insert sparklers into the top of the volcano and light them right before serving (be sure to remove the sparklers once they burn out). Serve immediately and enjoy!
