Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sandwiches

March 6th, 2012

The past few days have been hot. And I don’t mean just hot by winter standards, but actual 80°+ days. In order to properly celebrate, I made my first frozen dessert of the year – peanut butter ice cream. It was good on its own, but the flavor was so intense (I went with 1 cup of peanut butter vs. the recommended 1/2 cup), that it needed something to balance it out. Enter: sugar cookies. They added a nice complementary crunch and when coated with a layer of chocolate sprinkles (or jimmies if you’re on the east coast), it became pretty much the ideal combination ever.

These looks amazing! I love anything with ice cream, especially when it involves other ingredients too!

I would pretty much eat peanut butter on anything, so my mouth is literally watering right now-thanks!

I’ve heard that jimmies has racist connotations…I would avoid using the term.

I am a new fan of your blog. Do you actually eat all of these amazing treats? You are so slim! I don’t bake ever because I would eat what I make. I love looking at the photos of the treats though. That is as low calorie as you can get..

That is what I am doing for my wedding this August: Setting up a make your own ice cream sandwich bar I was going to do chocolate chip cookies but maybe sugar cookies are good to throw in with the mix.
