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:
