My valentine doesn’t like most sweets.
But under questioning, he did reveal that he likes brownies.
And I know he’s a bit of a closet ice cream eater.
I made these ice cream sandwiches before and he liked them. The ones in this photo have mini cinnamon chips on the outside. I think the mini chips are easier to eat. But there are endless flavor combination possibilities.
These ice cream sandwiches would also be a fun thing to do with the kids tonight.
1. Bake one box of brownie mix using the “fudgy” rather than “cake-like” directions. Use a 13 X 9 inch dish to make the brownies thinner and cook them about 10 minutes less.
2. Cool the brownies completely and then use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out as many brownies as you can from the pan. Soften some ice cream – whatever flavor you want – and spread it on one of the brownies. Top the ice cream with another brownie heart and press to adhere.
3. Take a knife and smooth the ice cream around the edges.
4. Now here’s the fun part: Work fast so the ice cream does not melt and roll the ice cream in whatever suits your fancy. I used some mini cinnamon chips. But other options include chopped nuts, toasted coconut, crushed cinnamon candies, crushed candy canes, sprinkles, etc.
5. Put them in the freezer to set up before you serve them. If they are going to be in there more than a few hours you can wrap them in wax paper or place them in a freezer bag.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
