Making Ice Cream Sandwiches
C's mom gave our kids these darling ice cream sandwich makers from Williams Sonoma. They make a star, a cow, and a pig. On Saturday, I made the brownies and the blondies, and we used neapolitan ice cream to maximize our choices.
Here S demonstrates the proper smooshing technique. One of the fringe benefits they don't mention is that there are lots of brownie and blondie scraps to snitch from. Our friend E was particularly good at it.
We did find that you had to soften the ice cream a bit to put into the shapes, and then refreeze the sandwiches so that they'd stay.
We made about 30 of them, and they were big sellers. We were out by the next night, and that was only with a lot of threatening. M is already thinking about new combinations involving sorbet and coconut cookies.
