Lemon Raspberry Shortbread Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich
Creamy Blue Bunny vanilla ice cream, layered with fresh raspberries, and sandwiched between two lemony shortbread cookies. Basically the best ice cream sandwich ever!
When I think summer I think cold treats and fresh foods. Combine the two and you get Fresh Berry Shortcake Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches. The name is a mouthful, but so is the dessert. A big, delicious, tasty, and oh so yummy mouthful. This is the perfect treat on a warm summer night!
Serve With Raspberry Italian Soda and Lemon Rosemary Marinade
Summer is quickly approaching. I know for many, kids are already out of school, but we aren’t quite there yet, which is good because I need a few more days to make my plans and finish a few things up before my kids are out of school all day.
I love the less strict schedule summer brings, and all the fun! But mostly I just love the sunshine and the cold treats. Especially these Lemon Raspberry Shortbread Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches.
While I do love Lemon Raspberry Shortbread Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich’s Homemade Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich are also super fun for the season.
You guys, this ice cream is creamy, delicious, and the perfect compliment to the summery combination of berries and lemons. This dessert just screams summer, and it is super easy to make. Way easier than you might think.

Trust me, the ice cream is creamy and delicious, but if you want to try before you buy, you can because there is a Blue Bunny demo featuring Blue Bunny Premium Vanilla sandwiches and Wet Ones at supporting Walmart locations between June 4-7th! Go try it out.
I got to attend a demo at Walmart for the Vanilla ice cream and Fresh Berries, and see first hand what a great combo they are! And of course I bought both the ice cream and the berries so I could make these, clearly I highly recommend doing the same!
