So I made them in muffin tins, with crunchy chocolate on top and the bottom to kind of hold everything together and they were just perfect. So I made some ice ‘pops’ I guess you call them? I don’t know, but I will tell you as much as I love my popsicle mold I knew it would not work on these because the ice cream is SO SOFT and getting them out would be impossible. I had ice cream leftover from the loaf (because tbh it was more cookie than ice cream, lol) and I knew I wanted to add the crunch of chocolate. I made another batch again a few days later, trying to make a stacked cookie ice cream cake and I was smitten again.
They were so good!! The inside ice cream reminded me so much of the beloved soft serve. At one point I thought, what if I made an ombre version like these cupcakes? And that is what you see in the photo above (with these cookies courtesy of KAF). There was brown butter peanut butter, and then there were a ton of pint jars with all the different flavors that were spilling out of my freezer. I’ve been on a no churn train for awhile now. They lack the charm and background song but these cups are so creamy in a way that you can only get by using real ingredients. So I found a way for us to have them whenever we want possibly even better than the hit or miss of the truck. We didn’t get to do much of that this year because of covid the mall was closed off during cb season and even now as the temperatures are rising (it’s currently over 90F and I hate it lol) we aren’t going out as much. The trucks are there as early as cherry blossom season when it’s still cold and we will often all share one wrapped in jackets and scarves and it’s totally fine because it’s the best thing ever. Since we moved closer to the city I have been finding them more often as there are tons of food trucks lined all around the National Mall area where we occasionally go to take my daughter to play. You know, the iconic tall swirly kind you can only get from the ice cream truck. One of my favorite things to treat myself to, at any time of year, is a chocolate and vanilla soft serve. Creamy, easy one bowl no churn ice cream pops surrounded by a crunchy chocolate shell, reminiscent of chocolate dipped soft serve cones!
