Tasty Tuesday: Beat the Heat with these Semi-Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches

The dog days of August are here and in Ohio it is finally heating up (yes, it's been a cool summer here!)! Yesterday we reached temperatures in the 90's! So we need something to cool us off! A favorite "semi-homemade" treat are these ice cream sandwiches - they are simple for the kids to help with and YUMMY!


Semi-homemade Chocolate Chip Icecream Sandwiches:

1. Bake chocolate chip cookies - I used Pillsbury's refrigerated dough (simple)!


2. I Used Chocolate Chip Cookie dough ice cream - take it out of the freezer to soften while the cookies cool.


3. Scoop one scoop of icecream onto one cookie - press another on top to make a sandwich


4. Dip it into sprinkles for an extra treat


5. Wrap each cookie in saran wrap.


6. Freeze for an hour or two and serve!


Enjoy!

    I tried something like that a couple years ago. They're really good!

    You can also lay them down on a cookie sheet to freeze. After they're frozen, stick them in gallon sized freezer bags and store for up to several months!

    Ooo--those look amazing. My cookies don't ever seem "sturdy" enough to hold ice cream...maybe I need to rethink how I'm making them. :)

    Great idea, Courtney. I think my 14 year old would enjoy making these, and it's a great plan to have them on hand in the freezer. Stay cool. :)

    Yes, if you are like me - your family could eat a whole batch of chocolate chip cookies in one sitting!!! This way you can make a batch and eat some for dessert with dinner and save some for another day - by keeping them on hand as ice cream sandwiches in the freezer!

I LOVE hearing from my readers and I pray for you all regularly. I try to respond to questions in the comment section as quickly as I can - within 1-3 days.

Due to an overflowing email inbox and the desire to keep my husband, children and home first priority in my life, I am no longer able to answer personal emails at this time. I apologize.
