Sandwich of Ice cream

You've just made a batch of homemade Ice cream from one of your favorite Ice cream recipes and want a different way to serve it for the enjoyment of your children or family or friends.

The simplest Ice cream sandwich of course is to place 1 or 2 scoops of ice cream in between ordinary Ice cream wafers. However, here's one you may not have tried - I think it's one of the most indulgent ice cream sandwiches ever: Deluxe Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwich (photo)

It consists of: 2 scoops of chocolate Ice cream sandwiched between two chocolate dipped and nougat filled wafers! Although hard to find, one or two ice cream wafer manufacturers still produce these delicious wafers; the Ice cream sandwich in the photograph lasted only just long enough for the photo shoot before being devoured!

For a different type of Ice Cream Sandwich you can use soft, chocolate chip cookies instead of wafers (the larger the better!) and just sandwich a dollop (single scoop) of ice cream between them; squeeze gently and trim off the excess at the edges. Serve straight away or put them in the freezer to serve later as an ice cold treat. For variety, add one of many Ice cream toppings such as toffee or chocolate sauce or chopped nuts, chocolate strands or coconut to the ice cream before making the 'sandwich'.

For completely homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches we make our own ice cream AND our own cookies at home. We like to use our own chocolate chip cookies recipe (courtesy of my son Oliver), making sure we bake the cookies that extra bit big and then cram into them our favorite vanilla Ice cream or chocolate chip Ice cream

Croissants and brioches also make great Ice cream sandwiches - serve them warm from the oven with butter or syrup or your favorite sauce and then sandwich a scoop of ice cream in the middle. Delicious! (ice-cream-recipes)
