My kids went out to get ice cream from the ice cream man, and it was then that I realized that my husband who is the celiac of the family cannot have anything! The kids both got an ice cream sandwich made with chocolate chip cookies and ice cream. It gave me an idea. My husband really likes the chocolate chip cookie mix from Bob's Red Mill. So I made up a batch. I remembered reading a recipe about ice cream cookies. Since the cookies from the mix come out so small I used cupcake pans and lined each section with a small square of foil. I let the vanilla ice cream sit out a few minutes to get soft and workable. with a teaspoon I smoothed out a small layer of ice cream and put it in the freezer. you will need to put them back in the freezer to get shape again, but it doesn't take long. When the cookies were done and he was ready, I had small patties of ice cream all ready for assembly... take two cookies and one of the ice cream patties and make a sandwich. I normally would have used mini choc chips but I didn't have any on hand so I chopped some regular chips up and rolled the sandwich so the chips covered the ice cream on the outside. Now he can make them at a moments notice! Thought I would share! happy eating!

aww, cute. i want one!!

Great idea! You are a very loving wife. Your husband must have felt like it was his birthday! BTW, I love your name. That's just how I felt when my dr. told me I had celiac.

Do you have any to share? Samples are always welcome They sound awful yummy!!!!

OOH!! That's the sweetest thing ever to do for you hubby. My boyfriend and I were at the store and saw in the freezer section a box of choclate chip cookies that are super thick and have a fudge pocket in the middle. Now, normally I don't mind that stuff because I can make almost anything gluten free and have it be great, but I must have been pmsing or something because I got very sad and he hugged me and promised we would find a way to make them. I don't pout very often, so it bugs him when I do. So does anyone have any ideas for doing something like that?
