Oreo & Fudge Ice Cream Cake (Joycelyn)

1/2 cup hot fudge ice cream topping warmed
1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping thawed and divided
1 pkg. (3.9 oz.) JELL-O Chocolate Instant Pudding
8 OREO Cookies, chopped (about 1 cup)
12 vanilla ice cream sandwiches

POUR fudge topping into medium bowl. Whisk in 1 cup COOL WHIP. Add dry pudding mix; stir 2 min. Stir in chopped cookies.

ARRANGE 4 ice cream sandwiches, side-by-side, on 24-inch-long piece of foil; top with half the COOL WHIP mixture. Repeat layers. Top with remaining sandwiches. Frost top and sides with remaining COOL WHIP. Bring up foil sides; double fold top and ends to loosely seal packet.

I crushed more oreo cookies and sprinkled them on the outside of the whip topping frosting to keep the cream from sticking to the tin foil.

FREEZE 4 hours. Watch a video here on how to make this.

Quick and Easy Ice Cream Sandwiches (Joycelyn)

These make great quick, easy and fun treats for the summer
My kids used to help make these. It was a great way to keep them busy too.
For the cake part we used either Chips Ahoy Chocolate Chip cookies OR Graham Crackers.




Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich
Just place a scoop of ice cream on a Chips Ahoy Cookie and then press another cookie on top. Wrap in plastic wrap and place in a air tight freezable container and freeze cookies over night.
(you can also use homemade Chocolate Chip Cookies I just didn't like heating the house up on a hot day in the summer)





Graham Cracker Ice Cream Sandwich

Using ice cream that comes in a square container works best. Remove the ice cream from the box and slice the ice cream into squares about the size of a half of graham cracker.

Spread room temperature hot fudge topping on one side of the graham cracker and then place a slice of ice cream on top of it. Press another cracker on top, wrap in plastic wrap and place in an air tight freezable container and freeze cookies over night.

Sometimes we used strawberry or raspberry jam in place of the chocolate topping.
Any flavor of ice cream will work but the kids always liked Neapolitan because they had 3 flavors all a once.

Cherry Ice Cream Chocolates (Joycelyn)

Ingredients

1 carton of Cherry Dark Chocolate Ice Cream (by Deluxe Ice Cream Company)
36 Vanilla waffers
1 bottle Smucker's Magic Shell chocolate topping

With a small ice cream scoop place one scoop of Cherry Dark Chocolate ice cream on the top of each vanilla waffer. Place cookies on a cookie sheet lined with plastic wrap.Cover the cookies and ice cream with plastic wrap and freeze over night.




Empty the hard shell topping into a bowl(I used a cup to keep the chocolate topping deep enough to dip) and dip each cookie into the Magic Shell topping to coat. Place cookie side down on cookie sheet lined with plastic wrap and freeze .

These can be made ahead of time and are great for a dessert or bite size treat on a hot afternoon.

Blueberry Cream Cheese Ice Cream (Joycelyn)

3 c. fresh or frozen blueberries
1/4 c. water
2 c. sugar
6 oz. light cream cheese, softened
4 egg yolks
3 c. 2% milk (I used Half and Half)
1 c. half and half (I used whipped cream)

In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, powdered sugar, and water. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes and then remove from heat and allow to cool completely.

In a large saucepan, combine milk and half and half (or cream and half and half) Bring to a boil and then remove from heat.

While milk is heating, combine cream cheese, egg yolks, and sugar in a bowl and mix well. After you have removed milk mixture from heat, very slowly pour half of the milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture while the beater is running. This is called tempering the eggs, meaning that you're slowly acclimating them to heat so you can cook them without them curdling. Mix the egg mixture well and then add the tempered egg mixture back into the hot milk mixture. Over medium-low heat and stirring very often, cook to 160 degrees (use a candy thermometer; 160 degrees is considered safe for most animal products, eggs included). Remove from heat.

Allow to cool to a touchable temperature and then add the blueberry and syrup. Combine completely and put in the fridge for several hours until well chilled or over night. This will make it faster to freeze the ice cream.

Freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. After churning it will be like soft-serve. Place in an air-tight container in the freezer to let it set up. (I just reuse a plastic ice cream container) and freeze for at least three hours.
