4th of July Sweet Treats

WEEKEND ROUND UP PART ONE:SWEET TREATS

ICE CREAM SANDWICHES
This treat went together in less than five minutes! Make sure the ice cream sandwiches are slightly softened so sprinkles adhere better. I used small skewers (cake pop sticks) so easier to hold on to sandwiches when adding sprinkles. Each ice cream sandwich was wrapped in wax paper and placed back in freezer until serving.
