For this week's
Tuesdays with Dorie selection, Jessica of
Domestic Deep Thought of the Day chose Coffee Ice Cream Tart on pages 358 and 359 of Dorie's book,
Baking: From My Home to Yours.
Um, I did an interpretation and came up with Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches!
I made 1/4 of the tart shell recipe and baked them up as cut-out cookies. I skipped the coating of chocolate that goes at the base of the tart shell. I really wanted coffee ice cream, but my store was all out. I was getting those $1.50 Haagen Daz cups of ice cream...just enough to be dangerous and fill these sandwiches. Dorie's recipe blends the ice cream with liquor or extract and nuts...I went with straight ice cream for my little guys.
My friend
Jun purchased these beautiful dishes during her honeymoon in Japan. Your friends know you well when they say, "I thought you could put a cookie on them on the blog!" My international collection of ceramic props begins. Thanks Jun!!!

I like this variation. ;) Ice cream sandwiches are just a happy food.
So cute! Great way to reinterpret the recipe! PS: I love those little tiny Haagen Daaz cups! Thanks for baking with me!
This is brilliant! I bet those were good cookies! I didn't make this week's recipe since I was out of town, and seeing these make me want to make them right away.
They look delicious! How nice of your friend to bring those dishes back for you from her honeymoon!
oh man, what I wouldnt do for one of these.
What a great friend, classy dishes for sure. I like your idea. I described this tart as an open-faced ice cream sandwich!
so cute :). I made the big version but have a hankering for tiny sandwich one now. I love your plate from your friend...I can't wait to see what you add to your intl plate collection next :).
Your friend rocks! Thinking of you and buying you dishes on her honeymoon, that's a good friend :) Love your spin on Dorie's recipe.
Ice cream sandwiches are the perfect variation for this recipe, maybe even better than the original!
Love your interpretation of this one girl. These beauties look crazy addicting!
These look like they turned out great! :D
oh wow--those look good. i love the way they are just a teany bit melty!
What a cute sentiment, you friend, I often feel the same about the mr. he finds various props for me and the studio.. it makes me feel super special. Ice sands.. what's not to love about this.. I wish it was a bit warmer here though.
opps, I meant your friend.
What a fun twist! They look delicious!
These look so tempting :) I love ice cream sandwiches! And your dishes are beautiful.
