@tsarstepan,

I like Pistachios, Mangos and strawberry. The Italian Gelato is great. I love the Indian Khulfi and their Mango gelatin ice cream.

I've made totally homemade ice cream sandwiches although baking and "ice cream season" are often at odds with each other.

I find it's easiest to slit open a loaf of French bread and fill it up with ice cream. No baking. Just get the bread at the grocer's.

@tsarstepan,

I'll skip the sandwich part of it and take more ice cream, if you please.

Now you've gone and done it - I don't have any ice cream in the house.

With the chewy crust and the meltie ice cream? That's got to be one messy ice cream sandwich! Razz

I'm assuming you hold the lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles? Wink

A little relish and some onion chunks, with a squirt of mustard - don't over-do the mustard - and you have got yourself a piece of heaven.

Layers of soft chocolate cake ensure that your ice cream (in this case, tangy goat’s milk with a strawberry-balsamic sorbet swirl) won’t ooze when you bite in at Three Tarts Bakery + Boutique.

Hmm, so what the heck would tangy goat's milk taste like?

I'm not sure about this one. Confused

@Reyn,

Your guess is good as mine I suppose.

@Reyn,

I'm more worried about that balsamic sorbet.

I like most citrus-y sorbets, but I'm not sure I'm ready for a vinegar sorbet. I might be. I'm not convinced.

A variation on this might not be such a bad idea. I'll have to try it.

I'm thinking some sliced Boston brown bread with a scoop of vanilla or coffee ice cream sandwiched between might be a great combination. Maybe use the sliced rounds or layer length-wise slices of the loaf and ice cream in a loaf pan and freeze.

@edgarblythe,

It sounds like a variation on a brioche. Yum.

@Butrflynet,

Make it vanilla ice cream and I think you got a great great idea on your paws Sir Butrflynet!

@ehBeth,

Really aged balsamic is so sweet you can put it on pancakes. I was at a really fine restaurant in Richmond just after the holidays and they served a nice fruit compote just bfore dessert . The balsamic vinegar was aged like 40 years and was thick like syrup and very sweet with just a moderate tang.
I later discovered that you can make a "fake aged" balsamic by slowly heating it like youre evaporating a solvent in a metals reaction. You are lwft with a thick sweety unvinegary vinegar.

I really came by to ask if anybody remembers these old Ice Cream sammiches that were a big block of a malt chocky ice cream inside these perfectly done waffles. I only had em as a kid and I dont even remember where cause my mom didnt let me drive in the third grade. But the flavor was so spectacular , IMAGINE malted chocklit ice cream in these thick and crispy waffles.
