Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Strawberry Ice Cream Sandwiches
  1. Begin by lining a 9x9" baking pan with parchment paper, securing the edges with binder clips.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine your finely diced strawberries and 1 tablespoon of water. Cook for about 5–7 minutes until softened.
  3. Crush the graham crackers in a ziplock bag with a rolling pin until crumbly, or use a food processor for quicker results.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter with the crushed graham cracker crumbs, press half into the pan, and freeze for 15 minutes.
  5. In a separate mixing bowl, whip the cold whipping cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form, about 3–5 minutes.
  6. Fold the sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream, then add the cooled strawberry compote ensuring a marbled effect.
  7. Pour the ice cream mixture over the graham cracker crust, smooth the top, and return the pan to the freezer for about 2 hours.
  8. Once set, press the remaining graham cracker crumbs onto the top of the ice cream and freeze for at least 12 hours.
  9. After freezing, lift the sandwiches from the pan using the parchment paper and slice into 8 bars.
