I am a huge fan of anything peanut butter and jelly.
And I’m an even bigger fan of anything involving ice cream.
So this dessert was right up my alley. I guess that explains why I thought it up.
It’s really easy to make too. You start with a package of ice cream sandwiches. These get layered with peanut butter and raspberry jam. Then frost the whole thing in Cool Whip. I love a recipe that’s assembly-only.
If you need to make a dessert ahead of time, this one is perfect. It gets stored in the freezer and tastes even better after a few days frozen.
Here’s what you’ll need to make it:

This is GENIUS and you, therefore, are a GENIUS. Awesome idea. Same goes for your creme brule cookies. Where were you when my daughter was still a little girl?????
