The Ice Cream Sandwich Maker You're Going To Want This Summer

This might be the summer's most exciting cooking gadget.

What could be better than an ice cream sandwich? You get the best of both worlds -- ice cream and cookies (or whatever else you use as cookies, that is. We're thinking brownies, black and white cookies, Oreos or even Lucky Charms cereal.). There are so many ways to make ice cream sandwiches that we could -- and might -- eat a different kind of ice cream sandwich every day of summer and never get bored. Of course you can also buy pre-made ice cream sandwiches, but if you really want to go the extra mile, you should make them at home.

Enter Nostalgia Electronic's Ice Cream Sandwich maker. It's a countertop, easy-to-use, waffle-iron/panini press-like gadget to fulfill all your ice cream sandwich dreams. It's also lightweight (four pounds according to the Amazon description), so presumably you could travel with it and take it to summer get-aways. What more could you want this summer? It's kind of genius and we definitely want one.

One great part about this ice cream maker is that it offers you different sized cookie options. You can make both the classic rectangular ice cream sandwiches and circular ones -- hello, chipwiches! It looks like you can also make the cookie batter with whatever you'd like -- and now our wheels are really turning. What crazy combinations can you think of? Let us know what kind of ice cream sandwich you would make with this awesome ice cream sandwich maker. We're going to need some inspiration with all the ice cream sandwiches we plan on eating!
