How to make a Waffle Ice Cream Sandwich

1. Start by making the chaffles. Prep and preheat your waffle maker as indicated by the manufacturer.
2. In a small bowl, use a fork or whisk to combine the almond flour, cocoa, baking powder and the sugar alternative.
3. In another bowl, whip the egg along with the whipping cream. Then add this to the dry ingredients in the other bowl and mix until just combined.
4. Use a scoop to scoop the batter into the warmed waffle maker (a mini sized waffle maker should use half of the batter per chaffle ). Cook until done (about one and a half minutes per side or three minutes total for mini sized chaffles). Allow the chaffles to fully cool before making the sandwich.
5. Use softened ice cream to spread between the chaffles. Depending on the ingredients used to make the ice cream, this can take between ten and 20 minutes when the ice cream is allowed to sit at room temperature. Then simply spread the ice cream on one chaffle to about ¼" of the edges. Carefully place the other chaffle on top and wrap with plastic wrap before placing it into the freezer to set.

Tips for making the best chocolate waffle sandwiches.

While I am using ice cream to fill my sandwiches, you can use something else.
Whipped cream, frosting, or a filling recipe that I share below could work great for you.

Here are some more helpful tips.

1. If you have ever made ice cream sandwiches then you know that soft ice cream, not melted yet not hard, works best. Simply allow the ice cream to sit for 10-20 minutes at room temperature until it gets to the perfect texture for spreading between two chaffles.
2. There are so many ways to make these sandwiches even prettier. Roll the chaffle sandwiches in sugar free sprinkles, chopped nuts, or even keto chocolate chips.
3. It is important that you allow the chaffles to cool before adding the ice cream to prevent the ice cream from melting into a soggy mess. Feel free to freeze or refrigerate the chaffles first.
4. Lastly, this recipe is for two mini sized waffle maker chaffles. If you choose to use a regular sized waffle maker you can either double the ingredients or make one chaffle and cut in half to make your sandwich.
