Ice cream cookie sandwiches

To make these ice cream cookie sandwiches, bake a nice tray of deliciously rich chocolate chip cookies. Let them cool on a baking tray. After they are all cooled, take a scoop full of your favorite ice cream and sandwich it between the cookies. Then dip the sandwich in any sprinkles of your choice. Once you are done, you will have a delicious snack for the poolside!
Layered brownie ice cream dessert
Brownies are amazing. Brownie mugs are ethereal! Just one spoonful of these molten chocolate delights melts in your mouth, and they deserve a bond with ice cream. And today, we are making this marriage possible by introducing our own layered brownie ice cream dessert. Simply bake molten brownies. Using any cookie cutter of your choice, cut the brownies. We suggest cutting them in a circular shape. Once they are finely cut, assemble them in a mason jar. Between each brownie, add a scoop of your favorite ice cream. Add ice cream and brownie in alternating layers. This dessert is super fulfilling and is a perfect dessert by the poolside.
Nothing beats a classic milkshake
If you are looking for a quick way to cool down by the pool, drinking a glass full of ice cream milkshake will do the job. In any milkshake mixture of your choice, add three to four scoops of ice cream with a bit of heavy cream and a quarter cup of milk. Blend the mixture to creamy, sweet perfection. Pour the mixture into any glass, preferably tumble-friendly, so that you can float with it on water or take it by the slippery poolside. Top it with whipped cream or ice cream and sprinkles. If you want syrup, then add rose syrup or chocolate. It’s all up to you.
Sundae ice cream over anything!
Nothing beats the likes of a deliciously chilled ice cream sundae. You can set up a bar with tons of toppings and flavors to choose from or bring them into prepared bowls. With a sundae bar, you can set up a station full of waffle cones, waffle bowls, various ice cream flavors, syrups, and toppings like fresh fruit, berries, and cream, chocolate chunks, and nuts.
