Pizzelle ice cream sandwiches are the perfect summer treat. Crispy, sweet, and easy to customize. Set up an ice cream bar and let guests make their own!

If you like ice cream sandwiches you’ll love our copycat It’s It ice cream sandwiches!

Pizzelle ice cream sandwiches are the latest trend in the Nelson home. We simply can’t get enough of them! The kids like coming up with their favorite combinations.

Vanilla pizzelles with peanut butter cookie dough ice cream is a top contender right now. Along with pizzelles, we are a bit obsessed with Blue Bell ice cream. It’s a dangerous combination, for sure!

A pizzelle maker is on my wishlist. I love these crispy cookies so much, and need to start making my own. For now, I buy them from Aldi and they come in both chocolate and vanilla (vanilla is my favorite). If you’d like to make your own, here is a recipe from Culinary Hill.

Easy Pizzelle Ice Cream Sandwiches

These ice cream sandwiches are a bit self explanatory, but here are our tips for making your own. For a fun vacation, roll the edges in sprinkles or dip them in chocolate like we do for our It’s It ice cream sandwiches.

  • Place a generous scoop of ice cream on to a pizzelle.

  • Gently press the ice cream down with your hands— yes your hands! Then place the second cookie on top and gently press the sandwich together. Using your hands prevents the cookie from cracking.
  • Cover pizzelle ice cream sandwiches with plastic wrap in freezer if not eating right away. This keeps the ice cream fresh. We’ve made pizzelles and eaten them the next day, and they were delicious. A little softer, but I like them that way. We haven’t tried eating them two days later because they simply don’t last that long over here!

This kid knows a good thing when he sees it. Anyti This kid knows a good thing when he sees it. Anytime my camera and tripod go up, he’s right there waiting. Today we made our favorite green smoothie. It’s all about balance—-just kidding. We all know that’s a lie. I have like 10 healthy recipes on my site and 800 breads and desserts. 😂

Tip: when buying produce, buy extra to freeze. I buy an extra pineapple, an extra package of grapes, an extra bunch of bananas and an extra bag of spinach and freeze them for smoothies. I slice everything up and freeze it on baking sheets then bag it up. It makes it easy to grab a handful to toss into a blender. You can freeze entire bags of spinach too and add a handful to smoothies. I always blend my spinach and water first then add the rest of the fruit. No little spinach chunks in the smoothie that way. 🙌🏻

This cutie is working on a hat for her big brother This cutie is working on a hat for her big brother for Christmas. We love this little set of round knitting looms. A great project to work on during Christmas break. She’s making herself a pink one after Christmas. We bought several colors of bulky yarn at Walmart for $2.97 each. Each skein makes 1 hat. Linked in stories. ❤️

Tomorrow is all about gingerbread cookies for Sant Tomorrow is all about gingerbread cookies for Santa (although the Santa who comes to our house prefers sugar cookies. He can share these with Mrs. Claus). Ruby has them all picked out—-gingerbread boys, gingerbread girls, and ninja-bread cookies. Should be fun. Had to go out and get more molasses and it wasn’t easy to find! Everyone else must be making gingerbread, too!

Gnomes and llamas made their way to our Christmas Gnomes and llamas made their way to our Christmas cookies this year and I’m wondering why we didn’t use them before! So cute ($1 at Target). My 9 year old decorated most of the cookies that you see in this photo. I taught her how to use a piping bag, a star tip, and a round tip last year and she hit the ground running. Check out our stories for 6 cookie tutorials for kids using the same frosting tips!
