Notes

  • To help the waffles hold their shape, you can freeze the waffles before adding ice cream.
  • There is no need to thaw frozen waffles.
  • Bring the ice cream to room temperature to make it easier to spread.
  • Cook your homemade waffles ahead of time and store them in the fridge or freezer until ready to use.
  • Use an offset spatula to spread the softened ice cream on the waffles.
  • Wrap individually in plastic wrap or freezer paper to keep the sandwiches fresh.
