Ice Cream Sandwiches

Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Let vanilla ice cream soften for five minutes. Lay cocoa snaps or gingersnaps (or vanilla wafers) out in two rows and spread raspberry jam thinly on each one. Add a scoop of the softened ice cream to half the cookies and top with the remaining cookies to make sandwiches. (Obviously, use different flavors of ice cream or sorbet if you’d like, or vary the jam — or skip it altogether.)
