When you're at the grocery store do you ever pull open the doors in the ice cream section and look around at all the expensive ice cream desserts??
Cathy has been "retired" from the paid workforce since 1996 to raise her family which includes one husband, one second grader, one teen and one stepson. She has been cooking and baking for as far back as she can remember for her family and friends in "Cathy's Kitchen." She is excited to be able to share her recipes as well as her cooking and baking hints with other home cooks. Please feel free to comment or ask a question about her recipes or about cooking and baking in general.
I have been known to do it on more than one occasion. A favorite (and less expensive) ice cream dessert that I have served my own family and guests are "cookie ice cream sandwiches." I have used store bought cookies and cookies I have made myself.
A dozen cookies make six sandwiches. You take a tablespoon of your favorite ice cream and two cookies. Put the ice cream between the two cookies and squeeze gently. Eat immediately, before the ice cream melts or do what I like to do.
I make them up ahead of time and freeze until ready to eat. The next time your kids have their friends over let them make these. They will think think you are the coolest (and most clever) mom ever!
