Servings

Ingredients:
Makes 6-8 Kitty Cat Ice Cream Sandwiches

  • Black Candy Coated Chocolates

Step
1

Begin by baking the sugar cookie mix per the given instructions. You could also save time by purchasing premade sugar cookies from the grocery store or local bakery. Once your cookies are baked and cooled, we suggest chilling them in the freezer for 5-10 minutes so the ice cream has a chilled base when making the ice cream sandwich.

Next, using a Plastic Knife, cut a "V" shape into the top of two cookies and remove the center portion. You should be left with a basic cat face silhouette.

Use your Knife to cut a 1" brick of vanilla ice cream. Place the brick on a Plate and place one of your cat cookies on top. Use the Knife to cut away the excess ice cream so you are only left with ice cream to fit the shape of the kitty cat ice cream sandwich. Carefully flip the ice cream and cookie over and add the second cookie on top.
