It’s time for another recipe from A Zesty Bite. I don’t know about you but I am excited that Spring Break is finally here! Many people are off visiting family members or they are on a family vacation. The rest of you are like me and are staying home this week. We just got back for a weekend vacation and decided to spend the rest of our vacation days during the summer.
This recipe is the perfect treat to spoil your kids while at home this week. It’s a delicious ice cream recipe that can be altered to your children’s own personal choice of flavors. I chose simple vanilla, chocolate and caramel because they just compliment each other very well in an ice cream sandwich.
This graham cracker a la mode can be a little messy so if you want you can put this dessert in a bowl or plate and have your kids use a fork to finish it off. Either way it will leave them screaming THANK YOU and begging for more.
*Feel free to substitute ice cream flavors or graham cracker flavors.
Graham Cracker A La Mode
Ingredients:
- 15-16 chocolate graham crackers
- 11 ounce package caramels
- 5 fluid ounce can evaporated milk
- ½ gallon vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup crushed pretzels
Directions:
- Set out the ice cream to soften.
- Lay 5 graham crackers on the bottom of a casserole dish. (Break them up if you need to)
- In a small pot add the caramels and milk. Stir on low heat until melted. Remove and set aside to cool for 4 minutes.
- Scoop ice cream and layer it on top of the graham crackers. Using a spatula level it out so that it is an even layer.
- Sprinkle crushed pretzels on top of the ice cream.
- Pour the caramel on next and then top with another set of graham crackers.
- Place in the freezer for at least 3 hours.
- Remove and cut into little squares.
*If ice cream gets underneath the bottom layer of graham cracker just flip it over when you remove it and top with the remaining graham crackers. You can never have too many.*
