It can be anything from Strawberry Popsicles, Strawberry Yogurt Ice Pops, Rainbow Nice Cream, Graham Cracker Dipped Ice Cream Sandwiches and basically anything cold and sweet from the freezer.

You can use any kind of cookies you want to make these, but my favorites are Double Chocolate Hemp Heart Cookies, Vegan Cowgirl Cookies (so Gemma can have them as they’re dairy free with coconut based ice cream) or Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies. If you’re short on time you can even buy pre-baked cookies or dough and bake them up quick. I promise no one will pass on these beauties.

Make sure to use an ice cream scoop to make big cookies to be the same or a similar size as the ice cream you buy. I usually buy pints of ice cream, but you can also buy slightly larger containers if you want them to be giant. Just slice the wheels, slide out the ice cream or peel of the paper and voila! You have beautiful ice cream cookie sandwiches everyone will swoon after.
