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.
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.
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!
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!
Check out this Instagram video showing all the steps in making the Sherbet Sandwiches. And for more cookie recipes try my potato chip cookies or cardamom cookies!
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!

These look amazing!! I never thought to try ready to go to make ice cream sandwiches with!
What a recipe! It looks like spring, and it tastes like spring! I can’t wait to make this.
Those cookies look delicious Anne!! Thanks #Client
Those are cool chips. I need to check to see if our stores have this Spring version. Really brightens up the cookies!
These are so pretty that I pinned them! I’ll bet they taste good too 🙂 mmmm.
I can be pretty sure I’d have trouble keeping my kids from raiding the freezer with these cookies in it too.
Looks yummy! Should be sherbet not sherbert.
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!
Yummy! This looks perfect for Easter. Such gorgeous pics too. Would love for you to stop by my baking blog 🙂
This looks so dangerous. Thanks for sharing! I would love if you shared this at Totally Terrific Tuesday that is live right now. Hope to see you there.
