How to Make Your Own Ice Cream Sandwiches

This week, Instagram decided to switch things up by releasing a new algorithm for the way posts are seen. Long story short - people do NOT like change and a lot of them were pretty upset.

But what people don't realize is that sometimes change is good. We need change in our lives in order to evolve not only as a culture but as human beings. Just think about all the good change has brought to this world.

Recently I have gone through a lot of change in my life - some good and some bad - but I am doing my best to find the good in every single day. Today, that goodness comes in the form of a Confetti Ice Cream Sandwich.

I know it's still a little cold for me to break out an Ice Cream Sandwich recipe, but I couldn't help myself. Can you blame me? Look how pretty they are! SO MANY SPRINKLES.

The cookies are a soft and chewy confetti sugar cookie with a vanilla ice cream filling. And of course, sprinkles were added wherever possible. If you are having a rough day - or just really upset about the instagram update - these are a sure way to brighten your day! And yes...I am aware that rhymed. And I totally am ok with it.

I might be the only person in the history of the world that has ever been grounded from baking. That's right. When I was a teen, it wasn't the computer, or the phone or the tv that got taken away. For me, it was the unsalted butter.
