Biscoff Ice Cream Sandwiches (Printer-friendly)
Creamy Biscoff ice cream pressed between spiced cookies for a frozen caramel treat.
# What You'll Need:
→ Ice Cream Base
01 - 2 cups heavy whipping cream
02 - 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
03 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
04 - 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter spread, melted
→ Sandwich Assembly
05 - 16 Biscoff cookies
06 - 1/2 cup crushed Biscoff cookies (optional, for edge coating)
# How To Make It:
01 - In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream using an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, approximately 2 to 3 minutes.
02 - Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and melted Biscoff spread into the whipped cream until fully incorporated and smooth, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
03 - Pour the ice cream mixture into a parchment-lined loaf pan, smooth the top with a spatula, and freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely firm.
04 - Remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it soften at room temperature for about 5 minutes to make scooping easier.
05 - Place 8 Biscoff cookies flat side up on a baking sheet. Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of ice cream onto each cookie, then top with a second cookie and gently press down to form an even sandwich.
06 - If desired, roll the exposed edges of each sandwich in crushed Biscoff cookies. Return all sandwiches to the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes to firm up before serving.
# Expert Tips:
01 -
- No churn ice cream means no machine, no fuss, and no waiting for a bowl to freeze overnight.
- The spiced cookie flavor seeps into the ice cream ever so slightly overnight, making leftovers even better the next day.
- Kids can assemble their own sandwiches, which means you get to stand back and watch the happy chaos unfold.
02 -
- Do not rush the freezing step, because soft ice cream will squirt out the sides the moment you press the top cookie down and you will have a mess on your hands.
- Melting the Biscoff spread before folding it in was a game changer I discovered after a lumpy first batch that still tasted fine but looked unfinished.
03 -
- Work quickly when assembling because the ice cream melts faster than you expect and a warm kitchen is your enemy here.
- A thin layer of melted chocolate painted on the inside of each cookie acts as a barrier that keeps the cookie crisp for hours longer in the freezer.
