easy ice cream sandwiches

for the fourth of July this year, i needed an easy festive dessert.  i have made ice cream sandwiches for many years now. however, this year, i tried using waffle cookies.  i purchased these at trader joe's, but they are available in many markets. these cookies are thin.  they do break easily, so caution is given when smoothing the ice cream between the layers.  the ice cream needs to be soft enough not to break the cookie, but firm enough to stay within the cookies to allow for the sprinkles to be added.

i simply used my homemade strawberry ice cream and then added red, white and blue sprinkles to the sides. 

freeze these wrapped in waxed paper or foil.  freeze until firm and then enjoy !
