Ginger Lemon Ice Cream Sandwiches

We love anything with lemon in it, and we mean anything! For our first post we found it very fitting that this icy treat had both lemon AND ginger in it. Follow these easy steps, and you'll be falling in love with these light, and fresh summer treats. Perfect for post-barbecue enjoyment.

*don't let the name fool you, the ice cream in this treat is made from lemon curd and cream!

Ingredients

• 1 cup lemon curd premade
• 2 cups crème fraiche or rich sour cream
• 1 cup whipping cream
• 1 cup toasted coconut shavings
• 12 large snappy gingersnap cookies or large shortbread

Directions

1. Whisk the lemon curd, crème fraiche or sour cream and lemon zest together in a large bowl until it forms soft peaks.
2. Line a baking tray with wax paper and lay out half of the cookies (6) face down.
3. Spoon the cream equally onto the centers of the 6 cookies.
4. Top with the remaining cookies and press gently letting the cream ooze out a bit on the sides.
5. Place the sandwiches in the freezer for at least 4 hours to set up.
6. Remove and roll the edges in toasted coconut.
7. Serve and enjoy.

We cheated and used this great mix for our ginger cookies. Thanks to the Invisible Chef!
