Indulge in a delightful sorbet sandwich that combines the vibrant flavors of your favorite sorbet with the crispness of cookies. This dessert is simple yet bursting with freshness, making it the perfect treat for warm days!
Ingredients
- 2 cups of your favorite sorbet (e.g., raspberry, lemon, mango)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Start by preparing the cookies for your sorbet sandwich. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This will make it easier to handle.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once chilled, scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each scoop slightly with the back of a fork to create a cookie shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
Once the cookies are cooled, take one cookie and place a generous scoop of sorbet on the flat side. Top with another cookie, pressing gently to create a sandwich. Repeat until all the cookies and sorbet are used up.
For an extra touch, you can roll the edges of the sorbet sandwich in crushed nuts or sprinkles for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately or place the sandwiches in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before serving to firm up the sorbet. Enjoy your refreshing sorbet sandwiches!
