Every year Easter time rolls around and every year I find myself with Mini Cadbury Eggs stocked in my freezer. Because that's how I like to eat my chocolate, right out of the freezer. I have no idea what goes into these tiny little pastel candy coated eggs filled with the most delicious milk chocolate, but whatever it is it's addicting and delicious.
I got to thinking since I like my Cadbury eggs out of the freezer, why not make some ice cream and add them to the mix? I also happen to love ice cream sandwiches, so why not sandwich the ice cream right between two double chocolate chip cookies with a little sea salt on top (because we have to balance the sweet right?)
So it happened, Mini Cadbury Egg Vanilla Ice Cream and Double Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches were made!
I mean it really might be my best ice cream sandwich yet! The ice cream is smooth with bits of crunchy mini eggs and then you have the chewy cookie on top and bottom and holy cow...it's out of this world. And listen I am usually a dark chocolate girl any day of the week, but not with Cadbury Mini Eggs...give me the milk chocolate any day.
You like how I tend to use holidays as an excuse for making something not so healthy for me? You are probably starting to realize that every holiday big or small I somehow manage to squeeze a sweet treat in the mix. I like to think that the calories don't do as much damage if you are eating them to celebrate something special.
Why should Easter be any different? These ice cream sandwiches would be the perfect grand finale to your Easter dinner spread guaranteed to please all of your friends and family!
