Recipe Notes

The ice cream was soft serve consistency when it was finished in the ice cream machine. I decided to put it into freezer over night before making ice cream sandwiches. The next day, it was frozen pretty solid so I set it out to soften for a while before making sandwiches. I scooped a good size portion onto a cookie, smooshed it with another cookie and individually wrapped them to put back in freezer for later!
