We know your kids love to bake cookies with you.  We know they love ice cream.  Put these two favorites together and you’ve got some delicious homemade ice cream sandwiches. 

The first time around, make your kids favorite cookies.  Let them cool and try not to eat them all.  Put one scoop of vanilla ice cream on the bottom cookie.  Add a second cookie on top. Gently press the cookies together.  If you press too hard, the cookie will crumble.

For more fun, mix up the flavors and try heart- or star-shaped cookies:

Chocolate Lovers:  chocolate ice cream between chocolate, chocolate-chip cookies.

Reesees Joy: chocolate ice cream on peanut butter cookies or Reesees ice cream on chocolate cookies

Mint Mash:  mint chip ice cream with chocolate cookies

Coco-Cinnamon:  coconut ice cream with cinnamon sugar cookies

Monkey Mix:  banana ice cream on peanut butter cookies

Choco-Strawberry:  strawberry ice cream on chocolate cookies

Homemade ice cream sandwiches are a real treat and so much fun to make with your kids.  Enjoy the warm summer days with a little sweet treat.
