WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?
You’ll only need 3 ingredients to make these Halloween sprinkle ice cream sandwiches! What you’ll need are:
- Soft Cookies (your choice of flavor)
- Ice Cream (your choice of flavor, try and get something that will hold its shape!)
- Halloween Sprinkles
- Other toppings/sauces (optional)
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?
I’m going to fully admit that these ice cream sandwiches are not only a bit hard to work with because of the ice cream melting fast but they are also super messy because of the sprinkles! What I like to do is pour the sprinkles onto different plates and have my parchment paper ready so as soon as I’m not rolling the ice cream sandwiches in the sprinkles, I wrap them up and immediately place them in the fridge.
Here are some of my favorite things to use:
CAN I SUBSTITUTE/ADD ANYTHING OUT?
These ice cream sandwiches are PERFECT for tailoring to how you’d like them! The only thing that you need to include for sure are the Halloween sprinkles of course but other than that, you are free to customize these to how you’d like them.
I bought the Costco cookie pack which included 3 different kinds of cookies and used that. I had double chocolate, classic chocolate chip, and white chocolate macadamia. If you want a more Fall vibe, you can try baking these pumpkin spice chocolate chip cookies or even some yummy Snickerdoodles with yummy cinnamon sugar!
For the ice cream, I love good old-fashioned vanilla ice cream but you can also use what you want or have. Make sure to do your best to have a really cold freezer so that the ice cream keeps its shape as much as possible. I love using the French Vanilla Ice Cream from Chapman’s!
You can also add any sauces you’d like in the middle like caramel, fudge, nutella, etc!
WHAT DO HALLOWEEN ICE CREAM SANDWICHES TASTE LIKE?
Halloween Ice Cream Sandwiches offer a delightful and customizable taste experience that can vary based on your choice of cookies and ice cream flavors. Here’s what you can expect:
- Cookies: The taste of the cookies is a significant factor. Depending on whether you use chocolate chip cookies, sugar cookies, or other varieties, you’ll experience different flavors. Chocolate chip cookies add a classic sweetness and a touch of richness, while sugar cookies provide a simple, sweet backdrop.
- Ice Cream: The ice cream is where you can get creative. Depending on the ice cream flavor you choose, you’ll enjoy varying degrees of sweetness, creaminess, and additional flavors. Common choices like vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry provide familiar and delicious options. However, you can opt for more unique and Halloween-themed flavors like pumpkin, candy corn, or caramel apple for a seasonal twist.
- Toppings and Decorations: Halloween Ice Cream Sandwiches often include decorations like colorful sprinkles, chocolate chips, crushed cookies, or even a drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce. These toppings add extra texture and flavor, enhancing the overall taste.
- Customization: The beauty of Halloween Ice Cream Sandwiches is that they’re highly customizable. You can mix and match cookie and ice cream flavors to create unique taste combinations that suit your preferences. This makes them a versatile treat that appeals to a wide range of tastes.
Halloween Ice Cream Sandwiches are a delightful fusion of sweet, creamy, and sometimes crunchy or chewy textures. Their taste can be as simple or as adventurous as you want, making them a fantastic canvas for expressing your Halloween creativity while indulging in a delicious treat.
HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?
Halloween Ice Cream Sandwiches are best enjoyed shortly after making them. When stored in an airtight container in the freezer, they can last for about 1 to 2 weeks without a significant loss in quality. However, over time, the cookies may become softer due to the moisture from the ice cream.
To maintain the texture and taste, consider individually wrapping each ice cream sandwich in plastic wrap and then placing them in an airtight container or resealable freezer bags. This helps prevent freezer burn and maintains their freshness.
If you need to store them for longer, you can keep them in the freezer for up to 1 to 2 months, but be aware that the cookies may become considerably softer. Always check for any changes in texture or taste before serving after an extended period of storage.
INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS RECIPE?
When I was planning my Halloween content, I was scrolling through my social media feeds and of course, being summer still, everyone was sharing Ninja Creami content and ice cream desserts and I got this really cute idea to have Halloween sprinkles ice cream sandwiches and knew that I had to share it!
Since then, I’ve been enjoying these while watching Harry Potter for my annual countdown to Halloween marathon and I’m obsessed!
ANY OTHER NOTES?
No major notes for this one but remember, work fast and it will get messy!

Instructions
- Grab two cookies and lay them side by side each other with the bottom facing up.

- Once the ice cream is spread evenly to the edges of the cookies, add sprinkles onto a small plate and roll the edges of the cookie around the sprinkles covering all the visible ice cream.
- Wrap them in parchment paper/plastic wrap and store in the fridge for about 20-30 minutes minimally so they can harden up.
