    Ice Cream Sandwiches

    Ingredients

    Cookies.  Big ones.
    A tub of your favourite Ben & Jerry's flavour.
    A sharp knife.

    1. Place 2 cookies on the plate, bottom side facing up.

    2. Turn pint on its side. We suggest flavour name up, so you don’t forget how awesome it’s going to be.

    3. Hold the pint firmly, and slice. You can make it as thin or as thick as you like.

    4. Put sandwich slice on cookie.

    5. Place the second cookie on top.

    6. Remove pint wrapper. Our teeth can rip through paper, but that doesn’t mean we should do it.

  • 2. 2-Ingredient Ice Cream Bread

    2. 2 Ingredient Ice Cream Bread

    Ingredients

    1 Tub Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough ice cream, melted
    1 Tub Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Fudge Brownie ice cream, melted
    3 cups / 375 g self-rising flour, divided in half 

    1. Preheat oven to 177°C.  Spray a 9” x 5” loaf pan with cooking spray and set aside.  Put 1-1/2 cups of flour in one medium-sized bowl and the other 1-1/2 cups flour in another medium-sized bowl.  Add one melted tub to one bowl, the other tub to the other bowl. Stir each bowl to combine ingredients.

    2. Using an ice cream scoop (or two if you don't want to clean it between scoops), scoop the batters into the pan in an alternating checkerboard pattern, four scoops down by two scoops across. Repeat for the second layer, topping the Cookie Dough scoops with Chocolate Fudge Brownie and vice versa. Continue until all batter has been scooped into the pan. Then take a wooden skewer or chopstick and run it through the top of the batter, making a swirly pattern.

    3. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a skewer poked into the bread comes out clean. To avoid overly browning the loaf, tent aluminium foil over the top of the pan after the first 30-40 minutes.

    4. Remove from oven and allow to cool before slicing. 

    5. Enjoy with a scoop of Ben & Jerry’s on top!
