I bet Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches will be your Summer addiction
I bet Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches will be your Summer addictionThere are so many things to love about homemade ice cream sandwiches! It's a summer dessert you can make way ahead of time, you get to choose your favorite ice cream flavor, and you can press in fun mix-ins like sprinkles or crushed Oreos around the edges. You'll end up with something that looks and tastes way more impressive than anything from the freezer aisle.

How to make Ice Cream Sandwiches:
Bake Chewy Chocolate Layer: Line a half sheet pan (18″x13″) with parchment paper then spray lightly with cooking spray. Pour batter into an even layer then bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the brownies cool completely.
Assemble: After brownies have cooled, carefully lift the parchment paper from the pan and cut down the center of the long side so there are two large, equal sides. Spread softened ice cream over the top of one of the layers then carefully lift the other side (I like to keep the parchment paper on) and place the brownie side on top of the ice cream. Place the whole pan back into the freezer and freeze for several hours before removing parchment paper on the outsides and cutting into squares. Enjoy all summer long!

Thanks so much for the recipe! I’m watching our grandkids for a couple of days. The 2-1/2-year-old helped mix the brownies, and the seven-year-old spread the ice cream and helped assemble them. We made them with Moose Tracks ice cream. They are SO decadent!
