Add Sprinkles!

The way the graham crackers freeze to the creamy ice cream is perfect because they stay slightly crunchy to where you can bite into the ice cream sandwich without the whole thing crumbling apart in your hands. And the dark chocolate dip and sprinkles are optional for these simple ice cream sandwiches, but it’s summertime after all, so let’s live a little!

How to Make Chocolate-Dipped Graham Cracker Ice Cream Sandwiches

Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften a bit. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
Put 8 graham cracker squares onto each baking pan. Work with one sheet pan at a time. Top each graham cracker square with a 1/4 cup scoop of ice cream.
Place another graham cracker square on top of the ice cream scoop, pressing down gently. Place in the freezer for 1 hour or until firm. Repeat with the remaining 16 graham cracker squares on the other sheet pan.
Place the dark chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in 30 second intervals at medium heat, stirring after each interval, until smooth.

Immediately sprinkle the chocolate-dipped half of the ice cream sandwich with sprinkles, cookie crumbles or nuts, if desired. Place back in the freezer for at least 30 minutes so the chocolate is set and ice cream sandwiches are completely frozen.
