Ingredients
Macarons (store-bought or homemade)
Ice cream of choice
Instructions
Prepare your macarons. If making them from scratch, ensure they are fully cooled.
Soften your ice cream slightly so it is scoopable but not melted.
Place a scoop of ice cream onto the flat side of one macaron shell.
Top with the flat side of another macaron shell.
Gently press to form a sandwich.
If desired, roll the edges of the ice cream in toppings like sprinkles or mini chocolate chips.
Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Freeze for at least 30 minutes to allow the ice cream to firm up.
Serve and enjoy your elegant dessert.
Notes
You can use any flavor of macaron and ice cream combination you prefer.
For best results, ensure your macarons are uniform in size.
If you don’t have parchment paper, wax paper can be used.
These can be made ahead of time and stored in the freezer.
