S'Mores Ice Cream Sandwiches

S'mores ice cream sandwiches are the perfect summer treat! Marshmallow ice cream meets chocolate chip cookies with graham cracker coating and a chocolate drizzle!

Ingredients

For ice cream:

  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 egg yolks room temperature
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 7 ounces marshmallow cream fluff!
  • 2 cups heavy cream

For cookies (adapted from Pinch of Yum):

  • 1 cup unsalted butter 2 sticks
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 regular sized Hershey's chocolate bars roughly chopped

For finishing:

  • 2 graham crackers crushed
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. To make ice cream (prepare one day in advance), combine milk and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until it starts to bubble around the edges.

  2. Add egg yolks to a clean bowl and beat lightly. Gradually add about 1/2 cup of the warm milk mixture into the egg yolks, stirring constantly. Return the mixture to the saucepan and stir to combine. Continue to simmer until the mixture has thickened slightly, but do not boil. Remove saucepan from heat and add salt and marshmallow creme, whisking until dissolved. It may take several minutes for the marshmallow creme to melt into the ice cream base; try to get as many lumps out as you can. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature. Add heavy cream, stirring to combine. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

  3. Add mixture to ice cream maker, following the manufacturers manual for instructions. Store ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to serve.

  4. While ice cream is freezing, prepare the cookies. I use the Pinch of Yum recipe which you can grab here, and substitute out the chocolate chips for chunks of Hershey's bars. This has been my go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe since I found it a couple of years ago! Allow the cookies to cool completely before you assemble the sandwiches, otherwise they will easily melt the ice cream!

  5. To assemble ice cream sandwiches, take one cookie and place a large scoop of marshmallow ice cream on top. Carefully to with a second cookie and squish down slightly to create a sandwich. Work quickly to prevent ice cream from melting. If you find it is too soft, return the ice cream (and the sandwiches you have already assembled) to the freezer for 10-15 minutes before finishing. Return ice cream sandwiches to the freezer while you prepare the final steps.

  6. Melt chocolate chips and butter in a double boiler until creamy. Add a little bit of milk if necessary if it is too thick. Keep warm on the stove, stirring occasionally.

  7. Spread the crushed graham crackers on a rimmed plate or in a shallow bowl. Roll the edges of each ice cream sandwich (where the ice cream is still exposed) in the graham cracker crumbs until coated. Drizzle with a bit of the melted chocolate. Freeze in freezer until chocolate is hardened and you are ready to eat!
