Who doesn’t love ice cream? With so many different flavors and topping combinations, it’s hard to believe that there isn’t a flavor out there for everyone. Whether you’re a traditionalist or you prefer dairy alternatives, ice cream is one of the most universally loved desserts and is here to stay!


This Honey Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich recipe is worth spending your cheat day on. With notes of chocolate, hazelnuts, and our luxurious Marmeleiro honey, this ice cream cookie sandwich will make anyone’s day. Although you can use store-bought vanilla ice cream and cookies before glazing it with honey, we highly recommend making it from scratch for the best results!

Directions:

  1. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and honey until pale.

  4. Make the ice cream following the instructions of the ice cream maker. During the final 5 minutes, add in the chopped nuts and chocolate. Freeze the ice cream.
  5. Preheat oven at 350F. Line the baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Whisk the eggs with brown sugar and butter until combined.
  7. In a large mixing bowl combine flour, cacao powder, baking soda, cardamom.
