From appetizers to desserts her food never ceases\u00a0to amaze me. Many of my memories consist of spending long hours with her in the kitchen serving as her side kick when she needed someone to crack the eggs or butter the pan. Having served as my mentor, my grandmother taught me most of what I know about cooking. The one dish of hers that I often recall is her unique ice cream sandwich pie or what I like to call the \u201cIce Cream Dream\u201d. This flavorful\u00a0dish takes a frozen dessert to a whole new level. Requiring nothing but a 9&#215;13 dish and a freezer, nearly anyone can make it. The \u201cIce Cream Dream\u201d is perfect for a hot summers day and a great way to follow up dinner. I can promise your inner sweet tooth will not be let down.<\/p>\n<p><em>Serving size: 18<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Time: 25 minute prep; 30 minutes to freeze<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 12 count box Blue Bunny Ice Cream Sandwiches (or any preferred brand)<\/li>\n<li>1 12 ounce tub fat-free frozen whipped topping<\/li>\n<li>1 16 ounce pkg. frozen sweetened strawberries or fresh strawberries (fresh strawberries preferred)<\/li>\n<li>1 jar hot fudge ice cream topping, warmed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Directions<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In a 9&#215;13 dish, line the bottom of dish with ice cream sandwiches<\/li>\n<li>Spread the thawed frozen\/or fresh strawberries over sandwiches<\/li>\n<li>Spread frozen whipped cream topping over frozen strawberries<\/li>\n<li>Freeze pie for 30 minutes<\/li>\n<li>Warm fudge in microwave for 30 seconds<\/li>\n<li>Top with fresh strawberries and hot fudge before serving<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even today, my grandmother remains\u00a0one of the best cooks I know.
