It wouldn’t be summer if we didn’t eat a big ‘ol ice cream sandwich at least once, right? Right. Even better: adding cookies into the mix! This ice cream sandwich recipe features homemade funfetti cookies; they’re festive, delicious, and filled with rainbow sprinkles–because, well, who doesn’t love sprinkles?
The trick to this cookie sandwich is using real ice cream. No-churn homemade ice cream doesn’t work as well in an ice cream sandwich recipe, because it just melts faster than regular ice cream. The other trick to these is having cookies that are just a tad underbaked! That way they’ll be nice and soft, and the perfect little house for that ice cream slab to live inside.
You can always switch up the ice cream here, too! I opted for a classic: vanilla bean ice cream! But you could, of course, sub in Strawberry, Chocolate, Butter Pecan, Chocolate Chip, Cherry (my husband’s favorite!), or really any flavor that you love. Get creative!
Oooh, you could even use Cookie Dough ice cream–now I’m annoyed that I didn’t think of that earlier! Anyway, scroll on to get the full ice cream sandwich recipe–and happy last days of summer, bakers!
