Patriotic Ice Cream Sandwiches

It’s no secret that it’s extremely hot on the 4th of July. So while we are all enjoying our barbecues this weekend, I wanted to give you a quick and easy dessert idea: Patriotic Ice Cream Sandwiches! Plus it’s way a to cool down!

You know me, I love recipes that are delicious and simple to make. While ice cream sandwiches are great on their own, I wanted something a little more festive for the 4th so I just added some fun sprinkles to them. So simple and cute. In fact, let the kiddos make them on their own!

Supplies Needed to Make Patriotic Ice Cream Sandwiches:

• Store-bought ice cream sandwiches (we used Klondike)
• Red and Blue M&Ms
• Red and Blue sprinkles
• Wooden Craft Sticks
• Optional: Red, White and Blue Foil Garland

How to Make Patriotic Ice Cream Sandwiches:

1. Remove ice cream sandwiches from their packaging and allow to melt a little bit.
2. It’s time to decorate! Firmly press colored M&Ms or sprinkles onto all 4 sides of an ice cream sandwich.
3. Place back in freezer for 10 minutes to allow to harden.
4. Meanwhile, wrap foil garland around the top of wooden craft sticks.
5. Before serving, insert the decorated sticks into the middle of each sandwich.
6. Serve and Enjoy!​
