We are slightly addicted to "homemade" ice cream sandwiches at our house right now. I saw the idea on the Barefoot Contessa's blog, made them and now we.cannot.stop.eating.them. 

They're homemade only in that you assemble them at home, but unless you go nuts and home bake the cookies and churn the ice cream, it's super simple and fast to make them with small chocolate chip cookies from your grocery store bakery and good-quality ice cream. 

We made two kinds: chocolate chip cookies filled with chocolate ice cream and rolled in mini chocolate chips (for Mac but he prefers no mini choc chips so his are even faster to make!) and chocolate chips filled with coffee ice cream rolled in Heath bar chips.

Oh my goodness. Because I used smallish chocolate chip cookies, they don't seem very high-calorie and therefore we eat lots of them. 

Thanks Barefoot Contessa for a great idea!

Oh no you didn't just tempt me with an absolutely lovely sound dessert - well, in fact, yes you did. We will have to try, but CANNOT GET ADDICTED! Saying it makes it true, right?
