I am always looking for life hacks to simplify things! A few summers ago, we shared our favorite 5 MINUTE ICE CREAM PIE with Yasso. Today, we’re back with our #1 Frozen Greek Yogurt to show you the easiest hack to making the perfect ice cream sandwich! In February, we taste tested 18 Yasso flavors and narrowed down some of our favorites in this INSTAGRAM. Having tried them all I knew we couldn’t go wrong selecting a few YASSO ICE CREAM BARS for our ice cream sandwiches. We chose: Party Animal, Best of Both Swirlds and Fudge Brownie Bravado!
Easiest Ice Cream Sandwich Hack with Yasso
WHAT YOU NEED:
Cookies – homemade or store bought. You could also use protein cookies from your favorite protein brand. Trader Joe’s has some great options! Nothing beats a homemade cookie though.
Yasso Bars – use their STORE LOCATOR to locate pints in your area. Our favorite flavors are Party, Animal, Best of Both Swirlds, Fudge Brownie Bravado, Pistachio Brittle & Mint Chocolate Chip.
Sharp Knife
Cutting Board
Plates
Any other toppings: Some topping I think would be yummy are crushed peanuts, mini M&M’s, crushed Oreos, chocolate chips or crushed graham crackers.
DIRECTIONS:
Remove your Yasso bars from the freezer about 5 minutes ahead of time. After the Yasso bars have softened for 5 minutes or so, grab a large sharp knife and simply cut your pints into 4th’s. This makes the perfect ice cream circle to fit onto your cookie! Isn’t that such a good hack?! No more waiting for your ice cream to thaw to the point it’s finally spreadable. No more broken cookies trying to press your ice cream onto your cookie. So easy, so simple, so effective! Once you’ve put the top and bottom onto your Yasso slice you can then add sprinkles by rolling your sandwich onto a plate covered with them….or by using whatever topping sounds best to you! That’s it! We made both of these for Ozzy and I in less than 3 minutes.
These Yasso Ice Cream Sandwiches are the the perfect summer treat. I love the mix of ice cream and cookie. These would be so much fun for your kids and their friends to make on a hot day and to eat by the pool! This simple hack is key to a yummy, rich and refreshing treat!
