🍦 Waffle Ice Cream Sandwiches – So Easy, So Good!
Ingredients
- 8 Belgian waffles (store-bought or homemade)
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar (or 1/2 tsp vanilla extract)
- 150 g dark chocolate (chopped)
👩🏻🍳 How to Make It
- Make the Ice Cream Filling: In a bowl, mix the softened butter with sweetened condensed milk and vanilla sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Add the Chocolate: Chop the chocolate into small chunks and fold them into the creamy mixture.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Line a tray or flat container with parchment paper. Place 4 waffles as the bottom layer. Spread the ice cream filling evenly over each one, then top with another waffle to make a sandwich.
- Freeze It: Pop the whole tray into the freezer for at least 8 hours or until solid.
- Serve & Enjoy: Slice in half or serve whole! Best enjoyed slightly softened out of the freezer for a chewy-crispy-creamy bite.
- You can switch up the filling by using white or milk chocolate, or even adding chopped nuts.
- Try making mini versions with smaller waffles for bite-sized treats.
- If your waffles are fresh and soft, toast them lightly before assembling for extra crispiness.
🍦 Q: Can I use other flavors besides dark chocolate?
Totally! Try white chocolate, caramel chunks, or even crushed Oreos for a fun twist. Make it your own!
🧊 Q: How long should I freeze them before eating?
At least 8 hours for a firm set. But if you're in a rush, 4–5 hours gives a softer bite too. Just don’t skip the chill!
🧇 Q: Can I use regular waffles instead of Belgian?
Yep! Belgian waffles are thicker and fluffier, but any waffle works. Just make sure they’re sturdy enough to hold the filling.
These waffle ice cream sandwiches are the kind of dessert that makes you feel like a genius in the kitchen with barely any effort. Sweet, creamy, crunchy—**they’ve got it all**. Keep a batch in the freezer and you'll always be ready for snack o'clock!
