Cinnamon Roll Ice Cream Sandwich
A cinnamon roll split in half is already a sandwich waiting to happen. Freeze it with ice cream in the middle and you have something kids will request for the rest of the summer.

- 4 sandwiches
- Difficulty
- Easy
Ingredients
- 4 cinnamon rolls
- 1 pint ice cream, slightly softened
- Optional: sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, crushed graham crackers
Instructions
- 01
Split each cinnamon roll horizontally. Chill the halves in the freezer for 15 minutes so they firm up.
- 02
Spread a thick layer of softened ice cream on the bottom halves.
- 03
Press the top halves on gently, then roll the exposed edges in sprinkles, chips or graham crumbs.
- 04
Wrap each sandwich in parchment and freeze at least 2 hours.
- 05
Let them sit at room temperature for 3 to 4 minutes before eating so the roll softens again.
Tips
- Chilling the halves first is what keeps them from squashing.
- Slightly softened ice cream spreads without tearing the swirl.
Variations
- Use two flavors side by side for a split sandwich.
- Dip half of each frozen sandwich in melted chocolate and re-freeze.
