Mini Mashers Ice Cream Sandwiches

Chef Jen Carroll uses a pizzelle maker to form potatoes into crisp carriers for ice cream. This unique take on the ice cream sandwich gives the summertime treat a whimsical twist.

Steps

1. Heat pizzelle maker and lightly coat with nonstick spray.
2. Place frozen mashers in pizzelle maker, eight pieces on each of the bottom sides to make three rows (2 X 4 X 2.) Gently close the lid but do not squeeze clasp together; cook for 2 minutes (the iron will naturally start to close.)
3. After 2 minutes, close the iron together fully, secure the clasp and cook 4 minutes longer.
4. Remove the crisp disks with an offset spatula, sprinkle with flaky salt and cool on wire racks.
5. For each sandwich, scoop vanilla ice cream onto one of the disks; top with other disk to make a sandwich. Roll sides in rainbow sprinkles or chips if desired.
