Homemade ice cream sandwiches for your Memorial Day fun
Filed under: Activities: Babies, Holidays, Nutrition: Health, Mealtime
I don't even think about ice cream from October to May, but once the mercury hits a certain point, it becomes another food group. When we walk into our local ice cream store every spring after a long winter apart, the woman behind the counter greets us with, "The usual?" I'm pretty sure that can't be good. I'm only admitting this as a way to tell you that we love ice cream at our house. Whether you've planned a backyard BBQ for Memorial Day, a camping trip, or just plan on celebrating at home with your family, homemade ice cream sandwiches are sure to hit the spot with your little ones. Unlike the store bought versions, your kids can customize these sandwiches to their very own liking. Try making a couple different kinds of cookies, and buy a variety of ice creams, frozen yogurts, or sorbets, as well as nuts, chips, or sprinkles to roll the sandwiches in before freezing them.
Family Fun has a very authentic-looking ice cream sandwich, while Whole Foods will help you make it a little healthier (killjoys). Cottage Living has me drooling with these Chocolate and Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sandwiches. Finally, for you honey lovers, The Domestic Goddess has her Bee-Nut Butter Ice Cream Sandwiches.
Delicious!
