Blogwatch: Cannelle et Vanille's Pumpkin and Gingerbread Ice Cream Sandwiches

20081027PumpkinIceCreamSandwiches.jpg

Sometimes it takes an outside perspective to remind you of how great you have it. In this instance, I'm talking about pumpkin. Aran of Cannelle et Vanille didn't grow up on pumpkin pie, but as soon as she moved to the States, she "immediately fell in love and to this day, pumpkin pie is [her] favorite part of the American holidays."

An homage to the pie that stole her heart, these Pumpkin and Gingerbread Ice Cream Sandwiches bookend fresh roasted pumpkin ice cream with sugary gingerbread squares. They prove that spin-offs can be as good as the original.

The pic reminds me of a handmade soap I received as a wedding reception favor.

I rarely eat ice cream, until I can find pumpkin in the autumn. It tastes like pumpkin pie, vanilla ice cream and whipped cream all in one frosty glorious bite. I think I could live on it for a month or two. Genius to combine it with gingerbread sugar cookies in an ice cream sandwich! Looks like I'll have to make my own. I have no idea how to convert her recipe to measurements I can understand, but it's the idea that counts and I'm lovin' it!
