Ice Cream Sandwich - Valentine's Day Special

Wish you all a very happy Valentine's day!!

Ice cream sandwich was a long time dream for me. I wasnt sure how it would work out and was not even sure if it will be possible to bite comfortably.

It worked out so well. The texture and look was stunning and surprisingly the cookies dint turn soft in the fridge and was super comfortable to bite along with the ice cream and eat :)

Bingo Success!!
