How to add mix-ins to your ice cream:
Step 7
Soften a 14-ounces container of vanilla ice cream in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Place the ice cream in a bowl and swirl in ingredients. You'll get the best results if you use a dinner knife to stir. Return the mixture to the freezer to harden, about 1 hour.
To assemble the ice cream sandwiches:
Step 8
Place a scoop of ice cream on the bottom cookie. Gently press a second cookie over the ice cream. For even more variations, pat chopped nuts, shaved chocolate, toasted coconut, chopped M&M's, or sprinkles onto the sides of the sandwiches. Or spread jam on the inside of the cookies for another layer of fl avor. Freeze until ready to serve. The ice cream variations and sandwiches are best eaten the day they are made.

Back to TopCookies were easy to make with ingredients on-hand and were tasty. Cookies stayed soft enough to bite right out of the freezer but didn't crumble - they were pliable but not soggy. Great way for kids to help.

I made these a day or two before a BBQ and they were a huge hit. Instead of baking the cookies myself, I just bought a box of large cookies from the bakery at Costco. There are so many ways you can change this. I mixed M&M's in some, peppermint, banana chocolate...be creative. They are certainly best straight from the freezer to enjoy and am not sure about packing them in a lunch. I will make these every summer for sure. Even the leftover blended ice cream was great.

I made it for my child's first day of school and they had lunch first so they could be ready for the day. He said that they had gone a bit soggy and it tasted like there wasn't much sugar. I don't know about you, but I certainly am not making this again.
