I
absolutely love cookies. And just about the only thing better than
really yummy cookies is rich, delicious ice cream between really
yummy cookies!
Ice
cream sandwiches are fun to eat, and they are also fun to make.
Remember, you can mix and match brownies, cookies, wafers, waffles, graham
crackers, other sorts of biscuits, or even ordinary bread! You can
use traditional vanilla ice cream, other flavors of ice cream, or
sherbet or other frozen treats. Have fun, experiment, or check out
these recipes!

| I am lucky to have a "Dripp" near me - and they have loads of different flavors of ice cream, plus loads of different flavors of cookies, with which to make ice cream sandwiches! Above is Lucky Charms ice cream on two different kinds of cookies! WOW! |
This
typical American version of an ice cream sandwich was created and
patented by four fellows in 1963, but pictures from Atlantic City
show that ice cream sandwiches were popular way back in the early
1900s – and cost just a penny each!
According
to the book Sugar and Snow: A History of Ice Cream Making, by Jeri
Quinzio, the first ice cream sandwich was created in 1899 by a
pushcart merchant in New York City. His first-ever version was
vanilla ice cream between two thin graham wafers. Nobody seems to
know the innovative peddler's name. (And of course, it is possible
that someone else sold a similar treat elsewhere – this is the kind
of idea that is likely to have occurred to more than one
person!)
Many different nations have ice cream sandwich traditions that are not necessarily well known here. For example, in Singapore ice cream sandwiches are often made with red bean, yam, sweet corn, or honeydew melon flavors and are sandwiched between two wafers.
