IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (KIFI) — National Ice Cream Sandwich Day is just around the corner, and one local grocery expert is encouraging families to put a creative spin on the classic frozen treat.

Jessie Smith with Fred Meyer stopped by Local News 8 to share a few easy, homemade ice cream sandwich ideas using ingredients shoppers can find at the store.

Among the creations were a doughnut ice cream sandwich made with vanilla bean ice cream and rainbow sprinkles, a peanut butter cookie sandwich filled with chocolate ice cream and Reese’s Pieces, a croissant stuffed with a chocolate-coated ice cream bar and a s’mores-inspired version featuring graham crackers, chocolate ice cream, marshmallows and caramel.

Smith said the desserts are simple to make at home and can be a fun activity for family reunions, weekend gatherings or a summer treat with the kids.

National Ice Cream Sandwich Day is celebrated annually on Aug. 2.
