Red White And Blue Ice Cream Sandwiches Recipes

RED, WHITE AND BLUE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 18x12-inch half-sheet pan with shortening or cooking spray or line with cooking parchment paper.
• In medium bowl, stir cake mix, butter, vanilla and eggs until well blended (batter will be thick). Spread in pan (you may need to use greased hands to spread evenly). Bake 12 minutes or until set but still soft. Cool completely in pan on cooling rack.
• Meanwhile, line 12x9-inch pan with cooking parchment or waxed paper. In large bowl, stir ice cream, blueberries and strawberries. Spread in pan. Freeze until firm, about 2 hours.
• Cut cake into 6 rows by 4 rows for 24 (3-inch) squares. Remove ice cream from freezer. Cut into 4 rows by 3 rows for 12 (3-inch) squares. Sandwich 1 ice cream square between 2 cake squares. Serve immediately, or wrap individually in plastic wrap or foil and store in freezer.

RED, WHITE AND BLUE ICE CREAM SANDWICH CAKE

Steps:

• Grease two 9-inch square metal cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Prepare and bake the red velvet cake in the greased cake pans according to the package instructions. Cool the cakes in the pans on wire racks for 15 minutes, then unmold the cakes onto the racks and let cool completely. Trim off the tops of the cakes to yield two 1/2-inch-high cakes.
• Arrange 9 of the ice cream sandwiches into a 9-inch square on a platter, trimming the sandwiches as needed to form the square. Top with one of the cake layers. Arrange another layer of 9 ice cream sandwiches on top of the cake layer. Repeat with the remaining layer of cake and 9 ice cream sandwiches. Chill in the freezer while you prepare the topping.
• Combine the cream, sugar, food coloring and vanilla if using and beat until stiff peaks form. Using an offset spatula, generously frost the cake on all sides with the whipped topping. Decorate the cake with sprinkles as desired. Place in the freezer until ready to serve.

RED, WHITE AND BLUE BROWNIE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Place foil baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups.
• Make brownie batter as directed on box for cakelike brownies. Spoon batter evenly into muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
• Bake 28 to 32 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out almost clean. Cool 5 minutes; remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 45 minutes.
• Remove baking cups from brownies. Using serrated knife, cut brownies in half horizontally. Place 1 scoop (about 2 tablespoons) ice cream between brownie halves. Place candy sprinkles in shallow bowl; roll sides of ice cream sandwiches in sprinkles. Freeze at least 1 hour before serving. Store covered in freezer.
