I Scream Sandwich!Inspired Recipes for the Ultimate Frozen Treat
Simply hearing the name ‘ice cream sandwich’ makes one feel good. It can also set forth a craving. Jennie Schacht offers up some delicious new take on this favored classic.
In I Scream Sandwich!, cookbook author Jennie Schacht redefines this hugely popular sweet treat and shows us how it can easily be the star of a dinner party, child’s birthday bash, family picnic, or just a lazy summer afternoon. The book includes a variety of ice cream sandwich recipes, from the classic (chocolate cookie bars with vanilla ice cream), to the exotic (kaffir lime and lemongrass sorbet on five-spice cookies), to the seasonal (blackberry-buttermilk ice cream on crispy meringues), to the upscale (pistachio gelato on a brioche bun). In addition to cookies and ice cream, sandwiches are made with brownies, bars, cakes, brioche, crusts, gelatos, sorbets, and dairy-free options. This idea-filled book also includes recipes for sauces, roll-ins, and decorations.

Her articles have appeared in national and international publications, and she is the author of Farmers’ Market Desserts, as well as the coauthor of The Wine Lover’s Dessert Cookbook, Without Reservations, Sweet and Skinny, and The Starch Solution.
