Canna Oreo Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich
We’ve given you a couple healthy frozen canna-treats but we couldn’t resist adding in this classic dessert with a twist to the mix. Do you like cannabis? Do you like Oreos? Do you like ice cream sandwiches? If you answered yes to all of the questions then we have your new favourite summer treat!
Prep Time: 1 hour
Servings: 6
Ingredients:
- Oreo cookies (we recommend the double stuffed but hey, your call!)
- Vanilla ice cream
- 1 tablespoon infused coconut oil
Instructions:
- Scrape our 60 Oreo fillings and place in a bowl.
- Heat the fillings for 2 minutes or until completely melted and runny.
- Add the cannabis infused oil to the filling and mix well.
- Blend the Oreo cookies into crumbs.
- In a large bowl, blend the vanilla ice cream on slow adding in the infused filling. Make sure you mix this part really well.
- Add the crushed Oreos to the mixer and mix on high.
- Place this mixture in a baking dish and cover tight. Freeze it for at least 12 hours. 24 hours is best!
- With the frozen mixture, use a cookie cutter about the size of an Oreo and cut out sections of the ice cream to into a full Oreo.
- Put the sandwiches back into the freezer for a few hours and then enjoy!
We’re not ready to sing so long sweet summer just yet! Enjoy these frozen summer treats for weeks to come or even months if you’re feeling rebellious and maybe just a tad in denial. Stay tuned for more crazy concoctions coming your way from Chef Bill!
