No-Churn Rose Pistachio Ice Cream Sandwiches

These dreamy frozen treats are perfect for summer days and they won't take a ton of time or ingredients. What could be better?

 

"There are times for ice cream made with a custard base that's cooked over the stove and churned in an ice cream maker, but there are also times for a simple no-churn ice cream that comes together with few ingredients and tools. In this recipe, a simple no-churn rose ice cream studded with raspberries and pistachios is sandwiched between two cookies of your choice. I like using less sweet and simpler cookies like speculoos cookies or sugar cookies to sandwich the ice cream." -- Amy Ho
