Can't decide between having cookies or ice cream? Why not have both! These tasty chocolate ice cream sandwiches are easy to make, perfect for long summer days, and (for some of us) a delicious throwback to childhood! Our scrumptious chocolate ice cream sandwich recipe is loved by adults and children alike!
HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES
Follow this simple 4-step ice cream sandwich recipe for the best ice cream sandwich you've ever had!
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, and flour. In the other bowl beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add one egg and beat. Then, gradually add the dry ingredients, beating just until combined. Wrap the dough in a cling film and chill in the fridge for 1-2h.
Preheat the oven to 180C. Take the dough out of the fridge, leave it at room temp for a few minutes before rolling it out. You can roll it out directly on a lightly floured baking paper if you like. Use a round glass or a cookie cutter or just cut into 14 rectangles. You should be able to make 7-8 ice cream sandwiches in total depending on the size of course. Bake any cookie dough leftovers too and eat them as cookies with your coffee! Bake for approximately 8 min and leave to cool on a baking sheet.
To prepare the ice cream, line a baking pan, preferably straight-sided, with cling film and foil. Get the ice cream of your choice out of the freezer and let it sit on the counter for 5min. Cut it roughly with a knife then stir it with a wooden spoon or a spatula until the consistency is that of a thick cake batter. Scrape the ice cream onto a cling film covered pan (preferably chilled) and smooth into an even layer. Freeze until firm!
Remove the ice cream from the freezer and working quickly so the ice cream doesn't melt, press a cookie cutter or a glass straight down into ice cream. If making rectangular ones just cut into squares with a knife. Quickly place the cut ice cream on a flat-side-up cookie and top with a right-side-up cookie, dip one side into sprinkles if using them. Freeze the sandwiches until the ice cream is hard, for about 2 hours and then cover with cling film before freezing overnight to allow the cookies to soften. Serve the next day and enjoy this perfect summer treat.

Forget the cherry, there`s much better things you can pop on top of a cake these days!
Things like these personalised fondant cupcake decorations - an ideal way to turn your baking gifts up a notch.
Just follow the steps from @elliebakess to make your own...
Step 1: Dust your surface in icing sugar, I used @tateandlylesugars as this icing sugar
ensures your fondant doesn’t stick to the surface or your hands! (It’s also great for use
in everyday baking such as in buttercream or glace icing)
Step 2: Take your fondant icing and add a few drops of food colouring. Mix this
together with your hands until you have achieved your desired colour - I like to mix
until I get a marble effect.
Step 3: Take an outbosser stamp of your choice and firmly press this onto the fondant
icing. A rolling pin helps with this too.
Step 4: Carefully peel the fondant icing away from the stamp and use a cookie cutter
to cut it out into your desired shape - circles always work well for cupcake toppers.
Step 5: Paint the raised text in any colour (You can use edible paint for this or mix
lustre dust and alcohol to create your own) Enjoy!

500g Tate & Lyle Icing sugar
250g unsalted butter
1tsp Vanilla extract

Add in your vanilla extract and pinch of salt
If your buttercream is too stiff add in a splash of milk (only a little as you will not need much!)

We could have just popped some strawberries and cream in a bowl for Wimbledon... but that would have been too easy!
So instead, we thought we`d introduce you all to Syllabub - an old favourite from the 16th century! Made by curdling sweet cream or milk with an acid such as wine or cider, it`s like a sweet, sophisticated trifle.
Especially if you make it with Pimms like we have...
Serves 4
Ingredients:
200 g strawberries
100 ml Pimms
1 lemon
1 orange
For the Syllabub:
300 ml double cream
4 tbsps Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Cane Icing Sugar
Method:
1. Chop your strawberries into quarters and put into a large bowl, add the Pimms and juice of the lemon and orange to the bowl. Cover and chill preferably overnight at a minimum.
2 Take your strawberries and Pimms out of the fridge and spoon into trifle glasses.
3. Whisk your double and cream and icing sugar until it holds its shape but is still spoonable.
4. Top your trifle glasses with the cream mixture and pop some strawberries on top to garnish if you fancy. Best enjoyed on a summer afternoon with the match on the tv!
