I Scream Sandwich!

Book excerpt: “Fair warning: you will want to lick the pages of this book . . . All your wildest ice cream sandwich fantasies are about to come true” (Kitchn). In I Scream Sandwich!, cookbook author Jennie Schacht redefines this hugely popular sweet treat and shows us how it can easily be the star of a dinner party, child’s birthday bash, family picnic, or just a lazy summer afternoon. The book includes a variety of ice cream sandwich recipes, from the classic (Vanilla Ice Cream on Soft Chocolate Cookie Bars), to the exotic (Kaffir Lime and Lemongrass Sorbet on Five-Spice Cookies), to the seasonal (Blackberry-Buttermilk Ice Cream on Crispy-Chewy Meringues), to the upscale (Pistachio Gelato on a Brioche Bun). In addition to cookies and ice cream, sandwiches are made with brownies, bars, cakes, brioche, crusts, gelatos, sorbets, and dairy-free options. This idea-filled book also includes recipes for sauces, roll-ins, and decorations. “You’ll scream for I Scream Sandwich!—a yummy guide to filling every kind of cookie imaginable with scrumptious ice creams and other frozen delights. Jennie’s recipes will guarantee a freezer full of chilly treats all year round!” —David Lebovitz, author of The Perfect Scoop
