The first day of the season was officially yesterday, but who needs an excuse to eat ice cream. Not me!
I was thinking back to my childhood summers today - ice cream figures prominently. There was an ice cream store just down the street so sometimes after dinner we'd walk down the street and get either a plain or dipped soft serve cone. Mom wouldn't let us get anything too big or too fancy. (Thanks mom, for keeping our sugar intake in check.) Holidays away from home were another matter...we pleaded for ice cream daily and I think we got it.
This is less of a recipe and more of an homage to an easy, delicious treat. Go get yourself one!
Ice Cream Sandwiches
Take your favourite ice cream and your favourite cookies and make a sandwich. (So easy!) Pop the whole thing back in the freezer for about 5 minutes to firm up the ice cream. Pace back and forth in front of the freezer wondering why 5 minutes feels like a lifetime... Open freezer and admire your work. Now, sit back, relax, enjoy and remember that life doesn't have to be difficult.
