I like to start my meal prep with dessert. I sandwich vanilla ice cream with layers of cereal, peanuts and coconut. Then I put it in the freezer until it’s ready to serve!
SERVINGS: 12-15
CATEGORY: Dessert
METHOD: Freezer
TIME: Prep: 25 min. + freezing
Ingredients:
- 2 cups crushed Rice Chex
- 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped peanuts
- 1/2 cup flaked coconut
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine the cereal, brown sugar, peanuts and coconut. Drizzle with butter; stir until combined.
Press half of the mixture into an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. dish. Cut ice cream into 3/4-in.-thick slices; arrange evenly over crust. Top with remaining crumb mixture; press down lightly. Cover and freeze until serving. Yield: 12-15 servings. Editor's Note: Purchase a rectangular-shaped package of ice cream for the easiest cutting.
