Hooray for summer!  Hooray for grandkids coming in town!  Hooray for chocolate donut strawberry ice cream sandwiches!

Imagine eating cake and ice cream with your hands…it’s just like that without the mess.

Chocolate donut strawberry ice cream sandwiches are made with small 3-inch chocolate donuts that are filled with strawberry ice cream, dipped in pink glaze and topped with party sprinkles.

Little chocolate donuts are so moist because of the addition of…wait for it…beet puree!  Some how I can manage to add beets to just about anything.

I used the donut recipe from my Halloween chocolate beet donuts with beet blood glaze.  The donut recipe is so versatile.  You can follow the step-by-step instructions for preparing the recipe on the highlighted link.

Bake in a preheated 350F degree oven for 10 minutes.  Cool in pan for 3-5 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack.  Cook completely before glazing.

Instead of using 1-2 tablespoons of beet juice, use 1-2 tablespoons of milk and add a few drops of pink food color.  Don’t forget the sprinkles.

Carefully slice the donuts in half.  Place a scoop of strawberry ice cream on the bottom half of the donut then top half over the ice cream and gently press down.  Set on a baking sheet and place in freezer until firm.  Wrap in plastic wrap or waxed paper.

Tiny ice cream sandwiches that are easy for small hands and mouths to manage when 1/2 scoop of ice cream is stuffed between the donuts.

For bigger hands and mouths use a full scoop for double stuffed ice cream sandwiches.  I can’t wait to make these little gems with my granddaughters.  In just less than an hour my cute girls will have chocolate donut strawberry ice cream sandwiches dripping from their chins and hands.  I can hardly wait!

I have always been afraid of making sorbet because I have always been afraid of making sorbet because I never knew just how much sugar to add to the recipe. 

Then I found this little tip!!

Drop a clean, uncooked egg into the sorbet mixture.  If the egg sinks to the bottom, more sugar syrup is needed.  

Slowly drizzle and stir in more syrup until the egg begins to float to the top of the mixture.  

You only want a quarter size of the egg showing.  Once you see this much of the egg, you have added enough of the sugar syrup.  Remove the egg and save it for baking a cake.  

Why do this test?  Well if you don’t add enough sugar syrup to the base, the sorbet will be icy and more like a granita.  

If you add too much syrup, the sorbet will be more like a slush and not form a nice shiny scoop.  
Who knew? 🤷🏼‍♀️
