Gluten-Free Ice Cream Sandwiches Tips
How do you keep the ice cream from melting while making gluten-free ice cream sandwiches?
Cooling the cookies completely before assembling the ice cream sandwiches will prevent melting. Softening the ice cream on the counter for 10 minutes before spreading on the cookies is preferable to microwaving the ice cream. Microwaving can melt ice cream so quickly that it becomes impossible to spread.
How do you store gluten-free ice cream sandwiches?
Ice cream sandwiches should be stored in an air-tight, freezer-friendly container. Serve within a week of freezing for optimal freshness and flavor.
What other flavors can you use for ice cream sandwiches?
Just like
ice cream flavors, the taste combinations for ice cream sandwiches are limitless. Mint, pistachio, cookies and cream or even dill pickle and peanut butter might beat out vanilla or chocolate for best-in-show at your house (though it's hard to go wrong with
homemade vanilla ice cream). For more ideas, check out these
