Graeter's Ice Cream

We love ice cream, and as a result I’ve been working on a recipe for an ice cream dessert, and I think you will love it. Introducing the star of the show… Black Raspberry French Pot Graeter’s Ice Cream, which is put in between two yummy cookies for a great ice cream sandwich.

Confession time –  I had a berry ice cream sandwich a couple of months ago while waiting for a ferry boat in Seattle. It was so good that I wanted to make my own, but had not found the right flavor of ice cream until I tried the Black Raspberry, which was sent by Graeter’s (along with five other flavors of ice cream for sampling) to my front door.

Graeter's Ice Cream

Grand Selection

Almond White Chocolate Chip Cookies

(Recipe is from McCormick and is the perfect pairing for the ice cream.)

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Pure Almond Extract
  • 8 ounces white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup slivered almonds

Directions

  • Begin by preheating  oven to 375°F.
  • Mix flour, baking soda and salt in medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat butter and sugar in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs and almond extract; mix well.
  • Gradually beat in flour mixture on low speed until well mixed.
  • Stir in chocolate and almonds.
  • Drop by heaping tablespoons about 1 inch apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
  • Bake 12 to 13 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
  • Cool on baking sheets 1 minute. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.


After cooling place a half to a whole scoop of Graeter’s Ice Cream (depending on size of cookie) on cookie  and top with another. Wrap each  in wax paper,  and chill until set. Place hardened cookies into a plastic bag and keep in freezer until you are ready to serve.

Want to share sweet treats with family and friends, but without going through all the trouble of baking and assembling yourself?  Grater’s Ice Cream’s got you covered.  They will ship not only pints of ice cream, but they also ship their ice cream cookies – Wheelies!

There are a few Graeters store opening near by. I have just recently begun to see the ice cream in the grocery stores. We recently bought some and boy was it good. Gone in one day as many people had a tasting.

Graeter’s is unbelievably good. I have trouble choosing the flavor I want when I go there because there are so many good ones. In summer, I love the fresh peach.

I haven’t ever tried the Graeter’s brand ice cream. I see Wegman’s carries it. I will have to stop at Wegman’s the next time I travel to Allentown.

Graeter’s ice cream is one of my favorite treats to have when we are visiting the Columbus area. The first time I tried it was at their location in Worthington down and across the street from Le Chatelaine French restaurant. We had a lovely time at both places and adored the ice cream!

Being in Columbus, OH, I am surrounded by Graeters. This is a good thing and a bad thing because their Mocha Chip Ice Cream is absolutely wonderful(good)and HIGHLY addictive(very bad)!! Not to mention that even when they are closed, this ice cream is readily available at the neighborhood Krogers. I’m fighting a losing battle here!

I would love to try the Black Raspberry ice cream. It doesn’t sound like you need to add any type of toppings to this ice cream aside from whipped cream.
