homemade ice cream sandwiches rimmed with sprinkles
Looking for a good food project to tackle this weekend? Why not try making a batch of homemade ice cream sandwiches? Erin (of Erin Cooks) has a special press, which helped make these look as perfect as they do, but you can get similar (although your ice cream may not go all the way out to the edges) results with a small ice cream scoop and large cookie cutters.

Erin, thanks so much for adding your image to the Slashfood Flickr pool.

17 Ice Cream Cupcake Recipes

Ice cream cupcakes
In early May, I told you about the ice cream cupcake roundup that I was co-hosting on Cupcake Project with Scoopalicious. The results from the roundup are in! There are 17 ice cream cupcake recipes to choose from. Everyone tackled the ice cream cupcakes in different ways. Some participants put the ice cream in the center of the cupcake and made essentially an ice cream cupcake sandwich, others put the ice cream on top and covered it with frosting, and some skipped the frosting altogether and just topped their cupcakes with a heaping scoop of ice cream.

It was also interesting to see the creativity surrounding the cupcake wrappers. While most used normal cupcake liners, some baked their ice cream cupcakes in ice cream cones, bakeable espresso cups, and waffle bowls.

We also had both dairy-free and gluten-free entries, so don't let your dietary restrictions stop you from getting in on the ice cream cupcake action.

Check out all the entires on Cupcake Project and Scoopalicious. If you try making your own, be sure to post a picture in our Slashfood flickr group so we can all see it!

Guilt-free fish and ice cream sandwiches: NY Times Dining in 60 Seconds

In an effort to sort through all the "dos" and "don'ts" of eating fish, the Times compiled a list of fish that are not only safe to eat at least once a week without worrying about contaminants and over-fishing, but that taste good, too. Wild, farmed and shellfish are all included. Don't be intimidated by the flavors of some of these less-popular fish: they can be substituted in all your favorite recipes.

Blue Bell ice cream, a premium brand sold only in 16 states, is so good that it ranks #3 in the nation in sales. What makes it so good? "The milk we use is so fresh it was grass only yesterday." If you're not in the Lone Star State, where the 99-year old, family-owned company is based, you can have it shipped - but it'll cost you.

Speaking of ice cream, ice cream sandwiches just might be the new cupcake. It has nostalgia and simplicity, as well as a huge number of variations, sure to please eaters of all ages.

The secret to stress-free cooking is cooking ahead, a strategy that even works in restaurants - particularly Italian ones that specialize in slow-cooked foods. Grandma didn't seem stressed, did she?

Frank Bruni eats and drinks at Cafe d'Alsace, giving it two stars. But that might just be the beer talking.
