With St. Patrick’s Day around the corner, all we think about in our house is rainbow cereal. Every year I make a batch of the world’s best rainbow crispy treats, and this year, I decided to take those babies one step further and turn them into the World’s Best Rainbow Ice Cream Sandwich.
We are taking our twist on a classic ice cream sandwich and turning our rainbow rice krispie treat into the best ice cream sandwich.
While I was in college, there was a shop in town called Diddy Riese. It was a small cookie shop that not only made a variety of your favorite cookies, for one dollar, they would add a scoop of your chosen ice cream flavor in the middle of whatever two cookies you wanted and make it an ice cream sandwich.
The line would end up being out the door and down the street on most afternoons. When I think back, it always brings a smile to my face. Not only because those babies were darn delicious, but it was just that they took an already delightful cookie and make it into something even more incredible.
Its all the excitement and happiness kids enjoy when the ice cream truck but in one special place.
Diddy Reese ice cream shop was my inspiration when making these rainbow sandwich. 
Our rainbow rice crispy treats truly are the best. Just the right amount of gooey and crispy goodness. With just a few additions, you can turn this delicious treat into the best ice cream sandwich EVAH!!!
What you need to make these ice cream treats
- marshmallows
- fruity pebbles cereal
- butter
- ice cream – We are using real vanilla ice cream for this recipe, but you can use chocolate ice cream, chocolate chip, chocolate or vanilla. Take a sandwich taste test and decide for yourself if you enjoy the chocolate flavor or vanilla flavor.
Tools Needed
- round cookie cutter
- ice cream scoop – my favorite
- The key to the perfect ice cream patty is the Demarle at Home Straight Muffin Trays
How to make this ice cream treat:
- For the full rainbow rice krispie treat recipe, head to that recipe.
- Let the ice cream soften.
- Scoop a quarter cup into half the Demarle at Home muffin trays.
- Then place into the freezer till it has hardened.
- Once you let the treats cool, I recommend using a rolling pin to flatten out the rice crispy treats as much as you can.
- Using the smallest of the round cookie cutters, cut out as many circles from the treats as you can.
- I like to pop them into the freezer till they are ready to serve.
- Then make your sandwiches with two circles and an ice cream patty.
HAPPY Rainbow Ice Cream Sandwich Day!
