Ingredients

PASSIONFRUIT CARAMEL ICE-CREAM
BLUEBERRY LEMON ICE-CREAM

Method

1.

Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan-forced). Bake cookies following packet directions for crisp cookies. Using an 8cm cutter or glass, place over each warm cookie, rotating cutter for a more rounded cookie. Cool, then freeze cookies in an airtight container until required.

2.

PASSIONFRUIT CARAMEL: Whisk cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add condensed milk; whisk until firm peaks form. Spoon into a medium container. Stir passionfruit pulp, dulce de leche and salt together in a small bowl. Drop spoonfuls of caramel mixture over cream mixture. Using a large spoon, fold the two mixtures together to swirl. Freeze overnight until firm. 

3.

BLUEBERRY LEMON: Place blueberries, lemon juice, sugar and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan; bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer for 5 minutes or until jammy. Cool. Whisk cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add condensed milk; whisk until firm peaks form. Spoon into a medium container. Drop spoonfuls of cooled blueberry mixture over cream mixture. Using a large spoon, fold the two mixtures together to swirl. Freeze overnight until firm. 

4.

To serve, scoop 5 large balls of ice-cream onto a chilled baking-paper-lined tray. Sandwich scoops between two cookies. Serve immediately or freeze, covered for later.

We used McKenzie’s Triple Choc Cookies and Choc Chip Cookies. You could also use McKenzie’s White Choc Macadamia Cookies. Each batch of ice-cream is enough for 5 ice-cream sandwiches.

Test Kitchen tip

What is an ice-cream sandwich?

An ice cream sandwich is a nostalgic and delightful treat that brings together two soft cookies or biscuits, sandwiched with a generous layer of creamy ice cream. With endless flavour combinations, from classic vanilla to rich chocolate or fruity sorbet, it’s a fun, easy dessert for any occasion.
