Trader Joe's recently introduced brownie ice cream sandwiches to put a spin on a classic frozen summertime dessert. The Brownie Crisp Coffee Ice Cream Sandwiches take the form of small, bite-sized square sandwiches, which are made with the brand's own Brownie Crisps and coffee ice cream.
Since the classic Brownie Crisps from Trader Joe's are naturally crunchy like a cookie, the addition of ice cream helps to soften the dessert crusts slightly, yet leaves them firm enough to hold and eat.
As a hybrid dessert that combines chocolate chip-stuffed brownies, coffee flavors and the refreshment of ice cream, it a new product that is sure to satisfy one's sweet tooth cravings throughout the upcoming summer months.
