OK! So if you are anything like me, you LOVE the red, white, and blue, America’s birthday and basically any reason to wave the flag and get dressed to the nines and watch some fireworks and BBQ with friends and family all week long! I mean, right?!? It’s like the quintessential summer to-do, eh?! šŸ™‚ SOOOOOOO this week, Zeke and I (and his friend Lilia) tried a super fun technique to try and “tie-dye” the inside of an ice cream sandwich. Let’s just say that these were SO SO SO fun and so easy and ended up VERY tasty! šŸ™‚ Today, we give you the July tie-dye ice cream sammie (with a blondie)!!!!

When you head to a BBQ or a party, you want something easy and festive, right? SO! We decided on a blondie for the “cookie” because we can make them in a “sheet” which is easier to make, transport and cut up upon arrival! And let me tell you, that these blondies are yummy and SO easy to make. I like anything that requires little clean up and these guys are the TICKET! šŸ™‚ They contain only a handful of ingredients (that you will SO likely find lying around your house without an extra trip to the grocery store) AND you can mix them up in ONE bowl (aka: less cleanup)! BINGO!
AND, for the record, I would eat these blondies even without the ice cream inside. They are THAT good! šŸ™‚

Check out the full recipe below, and AS ALWAYS I’ve included a Pinterest graphic if you want to pin this and save it for later! šŸ™‚ HAPPPPPPPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA, I sure do love celebrating you! šŸ™‚

4th of July tie-dye blondie ice cream sammies

The delicious and most wonderfully colorful red, white and blue ice cream sammie dessert with white chocolate blondies!

Ingredients
Vanilla Ice Cream
  • 2 cups cream
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tbs vanilla bean paste
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 6 egg yolks
  • red and blue food coloring
Blondies
  • 1 stick unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup lightly packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 large cold egg
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of white chocolate chips
Instructions
Make ice Cream:
  1. In a small pot, simmer cream, milk, sugar, and salt until the sugar and salt dissolves (approx 3-5 min).
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the 6 egg yolks until combined
  3. When the mixture on the stove is ready, add about 1/3 of this hot mixture to the whisked egg yolks whisking constantly as to not curdle the yolks. Then whisk the yolk mixture back into pot with cream. Return the pot to the stove, add in the vanilla and keep on stove until the mixture reaches about 170 degrees (or thick enough to coat the back of a spoon)
  4. Strain the hot mixture through a fine strainer into a bowl, then cool mixture in the fridge for about 4 hours, or until cool.
  5. Churn in your ice cream maker according to the machine’s instructions. Then put back into freezer and freeze until desired hardness (we want this thick but still soft enough to color with food coloring)
Make Blondies:
  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees and Line a ā€œjelly rollā€ baking pan with parchment paper
  2. In a medium bowl, stir melted butter and brown sugar until blended. Add the egg, vanilla and salt then stir vigorously until smooth. When the batter looks well blended, add the flour and stir until fully incorporated, then mix together for another 30-45 seconds vigorously until super well combined! The batter will be thick, but you want to see the batter pulling away from the sides of the bowl. Then stir in the white chocolate chip
  3. Spread the batter evenly in lined pan about 1/4 inch thick. The batter likely won’t reach the sides as shown in the photos above. Bake 12-14 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out relatively clean, the edges will strat to get slightly brown as well. Coo
Assembly:
  1. Take your sheet of blondies and cut in 1/2. One side will become the top and the other, the bottom.
  2. Measure out the ice cream into 3 portions, into 3 bowls. Drop food coloring of red into one bowl, food coloring of blue into another and leave the last bowl plain vanilla. You will have to work quickly to get the ice cream colored so that it doesn’t melt too much. I have found that melted ice cream re-freezes into a strange, milky texture and flavor! šŸ™‚ I used 10-15 drops of red and 8-12 drops of blue to get the color rich!
  3. With the parchment paper in the bottom of a metal cake pan, place 1 of the blondie halves. Then make ribbons of the ice cream, alternating red, white and blue until all the ice cream is used or the entire surface of the blondie is covered. swirl the ice creams together a bit with a toothpick or knife to get the ā€œtie-dyeā€ effect. Place the other blondie half on top and place back into the freezer.
  4. Once the blondie bars are frozen, take them out and cut with a sharp knife. Cut the raw edges off to make a straight edge and then cut them into 8-10 square bars! šŸ™‚
  5. Eat and share with everyone you love! šŸ™‚

Adding color and lots of little personalities and Adding color and lots of little personalities and faces to our weekend. Because love wins and death is conquered….so yes, this is for sure how we celebratešŸŽ‰ 
Also, every time I cracked an egg this weekend, I squealed in the sound or noise that I thought the personality of the egg would sound šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ obvi.
I would PICKle you as my Valentine over and over i I would PICKle you as my Valentine over and over if I could! šŸ˜‚
Also, yes, this is clearly a @claussenpicklesofficial because duh, they are the best! ā¤ļø

The alternate caption could also be ā€œyup…..it’s a Valentine pickle. Because my kids are obsessed with vinegar soaked veggies. Just swipe for the Halloween pickle proof šŸ„’ ā€œ
For the record, I got approximately zero adulting For the record, I got approximately zero adulting things done while constructing this cardboard @encantomovie Casita of my daughters dreams. Except of course inserting many phrases in place of the ā€œwe don’t talk about Brunoā€ song…..ya know, ā€œwe don’t talk about dishes no no nooooo. We don’t talk about laundryyyyyy.ā€ šŸ  šŸŽØ šŸ’› 
Also, the minute the hot glue was dry, Esther picked up the Casita, hugged it and ran it to the living room where she played most of the afternoon. A moment of Mom win to warm my heart šŸ˜­ā¤ļø
ā€œMay you find the light that guides you homeā€ ā€œMay you find the light that guides you homeā€ 
One of my fave song + fave yearly progression that makes me allll happy and sappy. Merry Christmas šŸŽ„ I hope you’re finding light this holiday season!
If I’ve said it once and I’ll say it 3 squllio If I’ve said it once and I’ll say it 3 squllion more times: I LOVE PAINNNTTTTT! Here’s the thing……paint is always, 100% paint-overable. If you paint something, step back, live with it for while but just doesn’t feel right…..simply paint over it. Like really that simple. 
I’ve done this a handful of times in our own home….bathrooms, bedrooms, hallways (like so many times in the hallways šŸ˜‚)! 
Painting to me is a slight reflection of life: nothing is perfect, and even when mistakes or missteps feel overwhelming they are always worth fixing and usually fixable annnnnd it’s amazing how much a  small moment can bring big joy…..or in this case a big moment on a biiigggg wall šŸŽ‰šŸŽØ
I am doing my last restock of these little nutcrac I am doing my last restock of these little nutcracker buddies tonight at 7pm (central time)! So if you’ve had your eyes on them, especially after seeing them in @hgtvmagazine (gahhhhhhh, still can’t get over this), then be sure to find yourself in my shop tonight at 7pm central!
Even thought I had alllll the intentions of postin Even thought I had alllll the intentions of posting this sooner, I make no apologies because I don’t like living in the land of the ā€œshoulddasā€.

PS, download the file on my blog amongst the other holiday themed doodles coloring sheets…..AND we printed our village in gargantuan size from Staples….(their engineer print) and I am not one but mad about the fact that it will take up nearly half a wall! šŸ˜‚ ā¤ļøšŸŽ„
Tis the season for my crafting fingers to be full Tis the season for my crafting fingers to be full of hot glue burns and can honestly say it makes me happy. Like so thankful and happy! 
Okkayyy well maybe not the burns themselves but the fact that I’m over here, in my little studio space in Wisconsin crafting my heart out and you’re sending the love right back to me with all the support! Support for the doodles and painting and costumes and sewing and other colorful things that I’m eager to share!
