2. Rainbow sprinkles
3. Reese’s peanut butter cups

2. Smear some rainbow sprinkles on the bottom half of the ice-cream ball

4. To finish it off, attach licorice whips on to the Reese’s peanut butter cup like the picture above

And there you have it! We’re sure you’ll have lots of fun preparing this dessert with your flatmates!

If you’re missing the whole white Christmas fantasy, the next recipe will surely make you feel like you’re in a snowy country!

Ice-cream snowballs

Instructions:

1. Scoop your favourite non-dairy ice cream into a ball (it can be any flavour!)
2. Roll the ice cream in some coconut. Use your hands, it’s not even THAT messy! 😜
3. Place it on a cookie sheet, and freeze for 10–30 minutes.

If you’re not a fan of coconut, you can always opt for crushed Oreo cookies instead of grated coconut! But of course, instead of having a beautiful white snowball, you’ll end up with a dirty snowball ⛄

Gingerbread man ice cream

Elevate this classic Christmas snack into something ice cream lovers would love!

Instructions:

1. On a back of one Gingerbread Man cookie, place a layer of ice-cream onto it.
2. Place another cookie on top of the ice cream, make sure the ice cream is snuggly sandwiched between the Gingerbread Man cookies.
3. Use a knife to smoothen the edges and trim off the excess ice cream.

Quick and effortless, isn’t it? But, if you wish to make this cookie from scratch, why not head to Best Recipes for the full recipe?
