Donut Waffle Ice Cream Sandwiches


This little hack is super-simple and the video says it all really. Just waffle two honey-glazed donuts (one at a time) and then fill with ice cream for a fun summer holiday treat! Don't forget to drizzle with a little chocolate ganache (recipe below), a dollop of whip cream and tons of sprinkles to make it a little extra special!

 Donut Waffle Ice Cream Sandwiches
Yield 1 person.

You will need:
2 honey-glazed donuts
2 scoops ice cream of your choice (we used neopolitan)
1 tablespoons of chocolate ganache (recipe below) or chocolate syrup works too
1 dollop of whip cream
sprinkles
waffle iron




For the Donut Waffles
Pre-heat the waffle iron. When ready, simply place the donut onto the centre of the waffle iron, close the waffle iron lid and press firmly to basically squish and indent the donut. Hold down, until waffle iron light says it ready.  Repeat. (Note: the honey glaze will carmelize a bit in the waffle iron and make a bit of a mess. Just clean as promptly as you can afterward to avoid a more difficult cleaning process).

For the Ganache
1 cup of heavy cream
8 oz. Belgium chocolate chips



Heat the cream on the stove top until you see the cream coming to a simmer.  Remove off burner.  Add the chocolate and cover with a lid.  Wait five minutes.  Then with a whisk, start whisking from the center until well mixed.  It will turn into a velvety ganache. Leave for ten minutes before using. Note: The longer you leave the ganache sit, the thicker it will get, so time is of the essence.  Also if you stir it too much, it will loose it's sheen.



Create a Sandwich
Place one of the donut waffles on the bottom.  Top with 2 scoops of ice cream, and then add the other donut waffle. Drizzle with chocolate ganache (or syrup), add a dollop of whip cream and sprinkles! Yay!
