BEAUTY & THE BEARD: BEST BITES: HEATH BAR ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Oh friends, you're going to thank me for this recipe post.

Heath.

Bar.

Ice Cream Sandwiches.

These are a little labor intensive, and a little messy, but they are gooo-ooood.

Here's what you'll need to make it happen (makes 12 sandwiches):

for the sandwiches:

-Chocolate or vanilla ice cream

- Crushed heath bars

for the cookies:

1 cup flour // 1/2 teaspoon salt // 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/3 cup granulated sugar // 1/3 cup brown sugar // 1 stick butter

1 large egg // 2 teaspoons vanilla // 1 cup chopped heath

How to make it happen:

Step 1: Bake your cookies & let them cool! (mix butter/sugars - combine with egg/vanilla - stir in flour/salt/baking soda - add in heath - bake at 350 for 10 minutes)

Step 2: Get your ice cream out of the freezer and let thaw for 5 minutes. While it's thawing, get a plate of crushed Heath ready!

Step 3: Add a large scoop of softened ice cream to one cookie and place another on top, GENTLY pressing down until the ice cream starts to come out of the sides!

Step 4: Smooth the ice cream out around the edges with a knife or spoon until flush with the cookies.

Step 5: Roll in crushed Heath, and get them back to the freezer right away!

Step 6: Wait 45 min- 1 hour to harden completely, and enjoy!

**TIPS**

1. REALLY let your cookies cool completely. Don't be impatient. Your ice cream will melt alllll over if they are even slightly warm!

2. Do these 1 at a time and put each one in the freezer right away- otherwise you'll have a melty sandwich mess on your hands!

3. For the love of all that is good- remember to put your ice cream away when you're done.

No, really.

I finished making my sandwiches and got a call on my phone upstairs so I ran to answer it- and got completely off track..legit forgetting my open ice cream...melting allll over. Hey, just keepin' it real over here!
