PEPPERMINT CRISP WAFFLE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

PEPPERMINT CRISP WAFFLE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Second thoughts are sometimes the best ideas! This is the Peppermint crisp Ice cream recipe combined with the chocolate waffles from a while ago. I used a cookie cutter to cut the same circles in the waffles and the ice cream, constructed the sandwich the wrapped with clingwrap and placed back in the freezer for 3 hours.
