Homemade ice cream sandwiches
These Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches are like the store bought version, only so much better! Make this summer treat right at home and save some cash.

I thought for a nice after work treat, I’d try making homemade ice cream sandwiches because I know my husband would enjoy them. They’re his favourite summer treat. Plus, my daughter and I happen to love them as well 😉
Store bought ice cream sandwiches are pretty tasty, but these homemade ones are better! They turned out really well. So well, I think I’ll be making quite a few batches this summer!
I’m sure you could use homemade ice cream too, but well, I’m not quite there yet. 😉
