Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 sandwiches
Ingredients
- 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2 cups ice cream (your choice)
Instructions
- Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing excess paper to hang over the sides for easy removal.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine peanut butter and honey. Microwave for 30-45 seconds, stirring until smooth and fully integrated.
- Add Rice Krispies cereal to the peanut butter-honey mixture, gently folding until all cereal is evenly coated.
- Press the cereal mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared baking pan, creating a compact layer about 1/2 inch thick.
- Place the pan in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to allow the base to set and become firm.
- Remove pan from freezer and cut the cereal base into 24 equal rectangles (these will be the sandwich "cookies").
- Let the ice cream soften slightly at room temperature for 3-5 minutes for easier spreading.
- Scoop softened ice cream onto half of the cereal rectangles, spreading evenly and leaving a small border.
- Top each ice cream-covered rectangle with a matching plain cereal rectangle, gently pressing to create sandwiches.
- Wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Before serving, let sandwiches sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes to soften slightly for easier eating.
Tips
- • Use room temperature ingredients for easier mixing of peanut butter and honey • Ensure your cereal base is firmly pressed to create a sturdy "cookie" • Let ice cream soften slightly for smooth spreading • Work quickly when assembling to prevent ice cream from melting • Wrap individual sandwiches in plastic wrap to prevent freezer burn • For best texture, let sandwiches sit briefly at room temperature before serving • Experiment with different ice cream flavors for variety • Use a sharp knife for clean, precise cuts when forming sandwiches
