There’s no hiding it…we like to celebrate any occasion with yummy treats.  Totally how we roll.  Most recently we rocked out Sol’s 4th Gotcha Day.  We started the morning off with donuts…per Sol’s request.

He also asked for…wait for it…Africa shaped brownies with ice cream.  Later he asked if I could make them like an ice cream sandwich.  On their special days, I’m game for any celebratory sweet challenge.  I want to make their day waaaaaay special, so as long as the request is feasible I’m good to take it on.

After searching Pinterest…God’s gift to the human race…I found THIS PIN for Ice Cream Starwiches.

I used the same concept from the recipe, but made a few changes.  I used my Africa cookie cutter and I also used two containers of ice cream and smushed the ice cream into a 9×13 dish and cut the ice cream out using the same cookie cutter.  I really thought these might be kind of difficult, but turns out, they weren’t that bad at all.

They were yummy and the absolute best thing of all, was Solomon was thrilled.  He beamed.  He thought I was the best momma in the whole wide world.  Everyone devoured them right up…an extremely sweet, sticky Gotcha Day mess.

Happy Tuesday!
