If you’re in the mood for an ice cream sandwich and you don’t want the one in the box that comes in a wrapper in the frozen food section of the supermarket ( you know which ones I mean), you can make some great ones at home.
You can use a shortcut buy purchasing already made cookies. Our local market make really great ones. But, feel free to bake your own cookies too.
Put a scoop of ice cream in between two cookies and you have a Homemade Gourmet Ice Cream Sandwich. You can add chocolate or caramel syrup after you place the scoop of ice cream on the first cookie. Sprinkles are also an option. After you make your sandwich, roll the ice cream exposed side in sprinkled that have been placed on a flat surface.
Freeze sandwiches until firm. This can be a fun food project with the kids or if you have a craving and want to make them for yourself.
I used chocolate chip cookies with pistachio, cookies and cream, dulce de leche, and black raspberry ice cream. You can use any flavors. The possibilities are endless!
