Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches made with LACTAID® Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream, so it’s still creamy and delicious but easier to digest!
I’ve always had a sweet tooth. I blame it on my father, whom I inherited it from. My dad always kept our freezer stocked with ice cream; ice cream was his thing and quickly became my thing too, especially in the summer time. What could be better in 100 degree weather (summers in Texas; I wish I was joking) than something like this?
A good ole ice cream sandwich.
As I got older, my father would get us more into different cheeses and charcuterie. He’s a foodie and exposed us kids to all sorts of delicious foods. With all the ice cream and cheese eating, I discovered that I couldn’t digest it all very well. This was a rude awakening for me in my adult years.
It’s summer time now and my kids and I are often stopping for ice cream. Unless they have a lactose-free option, I just don’t get anything. And watch my kids enjoy their ice cream cones.
Who wants to live like that?!! Not me!
I’ve tried all sorts of non-dairy frozen desserts and nothing has tasted quite like ice cream. Until now.
July is National Ice Cream Month! And I’m here to introduce you guys to LACTAID® Ice Cream! It’s still rich and creamy because it is real ice cream made with milk, but just without the lactose. It’s the perfect cold treat for dairy sensitive (like me) and regular ice cream lovers alike. My kids also ate these mint chocolate chip ice cream sandwiches and didn’t notice a thing!
LACTAID® Ice Cream comes in six delicious flavors for everyone to enjoy, including: Chocolate, Cookies & Cream, Vanilla, Berry Chocolate Crumble, Salted Caramel Chip and now new Mint Chocolate Chip. LACTAID® Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream brings together the cool taste of fresh mint and the richness of dark chocolate chips for a creamy and indulgent real ice cream—just without the lactose!
Now, I can’t buy a new ice cream and not try the chocolate. I must say, it was equally delicious and creamy. I’m so happy! And now I can make ice cream cones and ice cream sandwiches at home!
These mint chocolate chip ice cream sandwiches are perfect because you can use whatever cookie recipe suits you. Gluten-free? Paleo? Just bake cookies that work for you and grab some LACTAID® Ice Cream and you are set!

Can’t beat ice cream sandwiches! Yum!
Right?! Especially in the summer time! Thank you, Liz!
I’ve been buying my lactose-intolerant mom Lactaid ice cream ever since it came out. It’s a lifesaver! She can have her milkshakes (with Lactaid milk) or her coffee over ice cream and not get sick!
These sandwiches look amazing. I love using chocolate chip cookies to make them with, and I could not be trusted around these guys! Like you, my sweet tooth is strong, and it’s a big ice cream sandwich lover!
haha, thank you Mir!!! I didn’t even know this ice cream existed until a few months ago!!! I am so happy now!
Can you believe that I have still never had an ice cream sandwich. Mint choc chip ice cream is one of my pregnancy cravings at the moment though, so this would be a great way to eat it!
