What’s cooler than being cool? Ice cold ice cream sandwiches! These soft, sweet and oh-so-melty treats are about to become summer’s sweetest hack.

Custom ice cream sandwiches are the quickest way to cool down this summer. Serve up a whole platter at your next backyard bash or make your afternoon next to the kiddie pool a little bit sweeter. Either way, you can whip these up without breaking a sweat—thanks to Betty’s easy cookie mix. We’ve got a few ideas to get you started below.

Here’s how to make a creative, homemade ice cream sandwich:

What you’ll need:

  • Ice cream—your favorite flavor (or flavors!)
  • Betty Crocker cookie mix, plus ingredients called for on package
  • Ice cream scoop
  1. Bake cookies according to package directions and allow to cool completely.
  2. Pull ice cream out of the freezer and allow to soften for a few minutes. Then scoop ice cream onto cookie base and top with another cookie.
  3. Put cookies sandwiches back in the freezer until you’re ready to serve.

 

Strawberries and Cream Ice Cream Sandwich

What we love most about this ice cream sandwich version of strawberries and cream is the way the cookies and ice cream combine into a treat that’s way more than the sum of its parts. The sandwich gets soft and melty—in the best possible way—where cookie and ice cream meet. While the cookie’s outside remains perfectly chewy and its ice cream center delivers cool, creamy strawberry flavor.
