Spring and Easter are perfect times for entertaining!  This spring I made these bright and cheerful Spring Sherbet Cookie Sandwiches for a colorful snack to have on hand for feeding company.

Spring Sherbet Cookie Sandwiches

When you know company is coming it is great to have things done ahead of time, so that you aren’t running around at the last moment preparing food.  These Sherbet Cookie Sandwiches are ideal for that, since they are made in advance and frozen until serving time. 

Big and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies made with Nestle Tollhouse Spring Morsels.

I started out by making a batch of Chocolate Chip cookies using Nestle’s Spring Chocolate Chip Morsels. These morsels are perfect for spring because they include bright yellow and pink morsel along with always popular chocolate chips!

Bright and Cheerful Spring Sherbet Cookie Sandwiches are bursting with flavor and a great alternative to ice cream sandwiches.

I made big and chewy cookies, and then put lime green sherbet in between them.  Then I decorated the edges with more of the Spring Chocolate Chip Morsels.  The bright pink, yellow and green colors of the Sherbet Sandwiches brighten up the day!

Once they were done, I wrapped the cookie sandwiches in plastic wrap and stored them in the freezer, ready for company.  The hardest part of the entire process was keeping the kids from raiding the freezer and eating them all up!

    • I googled it before I posted and saw both were acceptable spellings. But after your comment I checked again, and you are right, sherbet is the preferred spelling. I will have to edit!
