Ice Cream Sandwich Footballs
- Level: Easy
- Yield: 18 ice cream sandwich footballs
- Total: 35 min
- Active: 25 min
Ingredients
1 16-ounce frozen pound cake
1 quart chocolate ice cream
Chocolate shell topping
Vanilla frosting
Directions
- Split the pound cake horizontally into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Cut out 18 footballs using a 3 1/2-inch football-shaped cookie cutter; arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Cut the carton off the ice cream (make sure it’s frozen solid!) and place it on its side; cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Cut out 9 footballs from the ice cream using the same cookie cutter. Quickly sandwich in between 2 pound cake pieces and freeze at least 2 hours.
- Place the sandwiches on a rack set over a baking sheet and pour chocolate shell topping over them. Freeze until set, then pipe on laces and stripes using vanilla frosting. Return to the freezer until ready to serve.
