A Taste of Summer!
Yummy! Key Lime Pie-scream Sandwiches! Sorry, is that too Rachael Ray of a title? How about Key Lime Pie Ice Cream Sandwiches? Anywho, whatever you call them, they are delicious!
I adapted the ice cream recipe a bit from a Cooking Light Recipe, and then decided that key lime and graham cracker go together quite well, so I adapted it into an ice cream sandwich! This literally tastes exactly like key lime pie, and could not be easier. I also thought about putting the ice cream into a graham cracker crust and topping with whipped cream for a key lime ice cream pie. I hope you enjoy these as much as I did!
Key Lime Pie Ice Cream Sandwiches
3/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice (2/3 cup if using Key Lime juice)
1 cup half-and-half
1 cup skim milk
Pinch of salt
1 can (14 oz) fat-free sweetened condensed milk
Zest of 2 limes
10 graham crackers, broken into halves
Whisk first 5 ingredients together in a bowl. Pour into ice cream maker and freeze according to your machine's directions. Stir in zest at end of freezing cycle. Spoon into a freezer safe bowl and freeze for 45 minutes. Place 10 graham cracker halves onto individual pieces of plastic wrap. Scoop 1/2 to 2/3 cup of ice cream onto each graham cracker and cover with another graham cracker half. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and return to freezer. Freeze for several hours. Enjoy!

Years ago when I was a really young kid I lived in Portadown Northern Ireland. We would eat Ice Cream Sliders which look much like yours. It was 2 wafers with ice cream in the middle. The ice cream guy would come around and make it when you ordered it, I guess that way the wafer didn't get soggy. It cost me a thruppenny bit.
