I have a little secret. These Gluten-Free Ice Cream Sandwiches are dairy-free too. Shhhh! Don’t tell anyone. Just make them and serve them to your dairy and gluten eating friends.
They will never know. I promise.
My girls and I were at the grocery store the other day and we passed by the frozen section.
A mom and her son were pulling a box of ice cream sandwiches out of the freezer and the mom said, “I don’t think you’ve ever had one of these.
They were a favorite of mine growing up.” My girls promptly looked at me and batted their sweet eyes and said, “Mom, we’ve never had ice cream sandwiches.”
It’s true. They were diagnosed gluten-intolerant at such a young age that we never gave them ice cream sandwiches.
Also, since being diagnosed, I’ve never really looked for gluten-free dairy-free versions in the store. Schar sent me some of their gluten-free Honey Grahams.
They are honestly one of my favorite graham cookies. They are square shaped and don’t crumble when you bite into them.
They make the PERFECT Gluten-Free Ice Cream Sandwich.
So of course I took a big scoop of dairy-free ice cream and sandwiched it between two honey grahams. Delicious.
Seriously delicious.
Just to make it more fun for my girls, and being that we are in a festive holiday seasons, I dipped them in chocolate and crushed candy canes.
Super fun and super easy and very inexpensive compared to buying boxes of gluten-free and dairy-free ice cream sandwiches. A box of honey grahams makes 8 ice cream sandwiches.

Gluten-Free Chocolate Dipped Ice Cream Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 1 box Schar Honey Grahams
- 1 pint dairy-free vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
- 1 cup gluten-free, dairy-free chocolate chips (Enjoy Life is my fav)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 candy cane, crushed
Instructions
- Line a small cookie sheet or plate with wax paper.
- Place 8 Honey Grahams on the wax paper.
- Scoop one full-sized ice cream scoops worth of dairy-free ice cream into the center of each Honey Graham.
- Top with a second honey graham and press down lightly to help sandwich the ice cream between the Honey Grahams.
- Place ice cream sandwiches in the freezer for 1 hour.
- After the ice cream sandwiches are firm, place chocolate chips and coconut oil in a small microwaveable safe dish and heat for 30 seconds at a time until melted (approximately 60 seconds). If you don’t have a microwave, simple heat in a small saucepan on the stove.
- Stir melted chocolate with a spoon until smooth.
- Dip the ends of each ice cream sandwich into the chocolate and sprinkle with crushed candy cane. Place it back on the wax paper and repeat until all 8 ice cream sandwiches are dipped.
- Store in an airtight container in the freezer. Serve frozen.
