Ice Cream Wafer Sandwiches

Ice Cream Wafer Sandwiches are a must for the Summer.

HOW TO MAKE ICE CREAM WAFER SANDWICHES

Homemade ice cream sandwiches are nothing new under the sun. I’ve made them many times. Ice cream is nestled between cookies or cakes to make an ice cream sandwich. Today I’m using Tort Wafers.

TORT WAFERS

Tort Wafers are popular in Europe. You can use them to make variety of cakes, candy bars or baked treats. If you are located in Europe, you most likely have these available in the grocery store. If you are in the USA, I recommend finding a local Polish or Russian store. They usually carry cake wafers, or you can find them online.

I also use tort wafers to make Caramel Wafer Bars.

ICE CREAM

To make ice cream sandwiches I used an ice cream from a local dairy farm. They make the most amazing Graham Slam Ice Cream.

Let the ice cream soften a little, 10-20 minutes at room temperature, or let it soften in the fridge. Don’t let it melt.
Spoon ice cream onto a wafer and spread it with a spatula. Place a piece of wax paper on the top. Flatten scoops of ice cream into an even layer with the back of the measuring spoon or a rolling pin.

MAKE A SANDWICH

Peel off the wax paper and place another wafer on the top. Press it down with even pressure. Be careful not to poke a hole in with your finger.

FREEZE AND CUT

Cover the ice cream wafer sandwich with plastic wrap and weigh it down with a cutting board.
Freeze until firm, 3-4 hours should be sufficient.
Cut the ice cream wafer sandwiches with a sharp knife.
Store them in the freezer in an airtight container until ready to serve.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

Drizzle ice cream wafer sandwiches with melted chocolate. Or dip the cut sides in sprinkles.
