We had some left over ice cream from when Ed made it and no one would touch it for some reason. I guess no one wanted to be the one to finish off the ice cream. So what to do with it?
I found this recipe and remembered my Mom made something very similiar when I was a kid, only she used vanilla wafers or any other kind of cookie she had laying around.
So you and the kids enjoy and be sure an experiment with different cookie/ice cream combinations.

Comments OffYears ago I was looking for a way to make the ordinary sugar cookie even more tasty. At the time I must have been crazy to put that much sugar in my kids, but these sugar cookies have become a staple at Christmas time.
Use either the rolled up sugar cookies you buy at the grocery store for your base, or make your favorite sugar cookie recipe.
Here is mine:
Ingredients:
3/4 cup shortening (I use butter only)
1 cup of sugar
2 eggs
1/2 tsp lemon or vanilla flavoring
2 1/2 cups Flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
your favorite jam or jelly
powdered sugar

From FamilyFun reader Natalie D. of Utah: One recent Thanksgiving, my daughter, Sara, age 7, and I whipped up a batch of sweet turkey treats. Everyone loved the turkeys — especially the kids, who ate them for dessert.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
Oreo cookies
Royal icing
Whoppers candy
Candy corn
1. We used half an Oreo cookie for each body and an entire cookie for each tail, then used a dab of royal icing to affix Whoppers for heads.
2. We piped on icing eyes and also used icing to affix the candy corn feathers and beaks.
