Lightened Up Waffle Ice Cream Sandwich
The other day I was CRAVING a warm waffle with ice cream, and when I looked in my freezer I realized I had 2 perfect ingredients that would keep it low in Weight Watchers points, but high in flavor, I always have frozen waffles on hand, and I always have a pint of the Breyers Carb Smart vanilla ice cream, so I thought, why not put the two together for a sandwich?! It didn’t disappoint. Best part is it comes together in just about one minute!
What you’ll need to make this lightened up waffle ice cream sandwich
Only two ingredients needed! Of course, you can get fun with it and add things like sprinkles, or chocolate chips, but this is just the basic recipe, and it is so good!
- Annies Organic Frozen Waffles – 2 for 4 points
- Breyers Carb Smart Vanilla– 48 grams (approx 1/3 cup) for 2 points
Now of course you can use any frozen waffle or ice cream of your choice! I have also used 2 Kids Fresh frozen waffles that are also 4 points. This Breyers ice cream tastes EXACTLY like regular vanilla to me, its delish! But You can also use Nicks, Enlightened, Favorite Day reduced calorie, or Halo Top! Switch up the flavors! I have always done this with blueberry KidFresh waffles and it was equally good!
How to make this Lightened up Waffle Ice Cream Sandwich
Now this is probably the most non recipe, recipe, out there! It kind of goes without saying, but for the sake of the blog, here it goes! 🙂
First up, toast your waffles in the toaster oven. Then, add the ice cream to the center. I weigh all of my food in grams so I used 48 grams of this ice cream which equates to 2 Weight Watchers points. If you prefer to use a measuring cup this is approx 1/3 cup (a tad more). Assemble the sandwich, cut in half, and enjoy!
Told you, no real recipe here, but this how I roll! Simple, easy, and delicious. Oh, and only 6 WW Points and under 200 calories!
