WIFE Sweet Treat: Waffle Ice Cream Sandwiches

Waffle Ice Cream Sandwiches can also be made with frozen waffles if you’re feeling a bit lazy. If you do go the frozen waffle route get creative with flavors like blueberry and chocolate chip.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
• Maple syrup and butter, as desired, for serving
• Ice cream flavors of your choice

Directions:

1. Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer’s instructions. In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
2. In a small bowl, whisk milk and eggs; pour over flour mixture, and whisk gently to combine (don’t overmix). Gently whisk in butter.
3. Following manufacturer’s instructions, cook waffles until deep brown and crisp. (For a standard waffle iron, pour a generous 1/2 cup of batter into center, spreading to within 1/2 inch of edges, and close; waffle will cook in 2 to 3 minutes.) Serve warm, with maple syrup and butter, as desired.
4. For Frozen Waffles remove ice cream from freezer to soften a bit. Toast waffles as per directions on box. Make sure they are well toasted, no one wants a soggy waffle.
5. Scoop out ice cream onto one waffle and use another to top your sandwich.
6. If you really want to make a party out of things, top with whipped cream, sprinkles and fudge for a great blast to your childhood. -Image and Article from Passthesushi.com/ Waffle Recipe from Marthastewart.com
