In this fun cooking adventure, Cookie Monster and Chef Joel show us how to make yummy ice cream sandwiches that are perfect for birthdays and other special days. Let’s learn how to make them and discover some cool facts about the ingredients!
To make these tasty ice cream sandwiches, you’ll need the following ingredients:
First, let’s divide our ingredients into two groups: the dry team and the wet team.
Dry Team:
Wet Team:
Now, mix both teams together to make a dough. This dough will be used to make our cookies!
Roll the dough between two pieces of parchment paper so it doesn’t stick. Cut the cookies into fun shapes and bake them in a preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until they turn golden brown.
While the cookies are baking, let’s get the ice cream ready. Mix softened ice cream with natural sprinkles. The sprinkles make the ice cream look colorful and fun!
After the cookies have cooled, take one cookie and spread a thick layer of ice cream on it. Add fresh strawberries or your favorite fruit for extra taste. Put another cookie on top to make a sandwich.
Put the ice cream sandwiches in the freezer to make them firm. Once they are frozen, cut them into small pieces, about two inches by two inches, so they are easy to eat.
No birthday is complete without a candle! Place a birthday candle on top of the ice cream sandwich before serving. This makes the treat extra special and festive.
These ice cream sandwiches are not only delicious but also a fun activity to do with friends or family. You can try different ice cream flavors and toppings to make them just the way you like. Enjoy making and sharing these delightful treats, and happy birthday to anyone celebrating!
Experiment with Flavors: Try making your own unique ice cream sandwich flavors! Use different fruits or toppings like bananas, blueberries, or even chocolate chips. Ask yourself: How do the different ingredients change the taste and texture of your ice cream sandwich? Which combination is your favorite?
Cookie Shape Challenge: Use cookie cutters to create cookies in different shapes. Once your cookies are baked, see if you can match the shapes to objects around your house or classroom. Can you find a star, a heart, or a circle? Talk about why certain shapes might be more fun or easier to eat as an ice cream sandwich.
Ice Cream Melting Observation: On a warm day, take a small scoop of ice cream outside and watch how it melts. Time how long it takes to melt completely. Discuss why ice cream melts and what happens to the ice cream sandwiches if they are left out of the freezer for too long. How can you keep them from melting too quickly?
