No, Weaz. Absolutely not.
I’ve never met an ice cream sandwich I didn’t like. I do, however, tend to forget they exist.
My mom used to have ice cream sandwiches in the house all.the.time. And I’m talking the old school, stick-to-your-fingers, cemented-to-the-roof-of-your-mouth kind you’d never willingly purchase but would graciously accept because who wouldn’t graciously accept an ice cream sandwich offering? (Communists.)
Exhibit A.
Turns out you can make an ice cream sandwich out of just about anything–brownies, blondies, cookies… slices of pie. I mean, anything you can sandwich, right?
RIGHT.
I was the lucky recipient of two leftover chocolate chip cookies last night but I agreed to take them only if I could also stuff them with ice cream. My counter offer was accepted and I came home with this beauty:
YAY.

(I typed ice cram no fewer than 10 times making this post. I hope a missed a few of them.)
This is probably my favorite post ever. Ice cream is my biggest weakness and I LOVE ice cream sandwiches…can’t tell you the last time I have had one though…I’m pretty sure that it has been years… I can’t wait to look into these recipes!
I consider ice cream to be a strength.
Jeez. How do people come up with these things? I am too busy eating ice cream out of the carton.
S’mores cupcake ice cream sandwich?
Shut. Up.
I made one a few years ago with peanut butter cookies and strawberry ice cream. They were heavenly.
I don’t know why it never even occurred to me that I could make my own ice cream sandwiches. I also just typed “ice cram”.
I’ve been wanting a fat cookie ice cream sandwich FOREVER and you are not helping. Seriously, how fucking good does that snickerdoodle one look? Ugh.

APPROVED.
Great, I just drooled all over the keyboard.
It’s been far too long since I’ve eaten an ice cream sandwich.
