Patriotic Mini Ice Cream Sandwiches (Printable)

Bite-sized vanilla ice cream sandwiches coated in patriotic red, white, and blue sprinkles.

# What You'll Need:

→ Cookies

01 - 24 mini chocolate chip cookies

→ Filling

02 - 1 pint vanilla ice cream, slightly softened

→ Decoration

03 - 1/2 cup red, white, and blue sprinkles

# How-To Steps:

01 - Line a baking tray with parchment paper and arrange half the cookies flat side up on the prepared surface.
02 - Using a small ice cream scoop or tablespoon, place one scoop of softened vanilla ice cream onto each cookie base.
03 - Top each ice cream portion with a second cookie, pressing gently to spread the filling evenly to the edges.
04 - Immediately roll the exposed ice cream edges of each sandwich in the sprinkles to coat completely.
05 - Return the assembled sandwiches to the lined tray and freeze for at least 1 hour until firm enough to handle.
06 - Serve directly from the freezer for best texture.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • These come together in literally 20 minutes flat and look like you spent hours planning them
  • The ice cream to cookie ratio is absolute perfection in every bite sized package
02 -
  • Work fast once you start scooping because the ice cream starts melting immediately and makes everything slippery and messy
  • If the ice cream gets too soft just pop the whole tray in the freezer for 15 minutes before rolling in sprinkles
03 -
  • Use a cookie scoop that's slightly smaller than your cookies for the perfect ice cream to cookie ratio
  • If your cookies are straight from the freezer let them thaw 5 minutes or theyll crack when pressed
