Skinny Cow Cookies n Cream Ice Cream Sandwiches

I have been a big fan of Skinny Cow ice creams because they’re a healthier alternative to some of the other ice creams on the market.  Even though they are a healthier alterative, you’re definitely not sacrificing taste or flavor for lesser calories and fat.

I purchased the Cookies and Cream Ice Cream Sandwiches because cookies and cream is my all time favorite gallon ice cream flavor.  I’ve tried low fat cookies and cream ice creams in the past and haven’t always been the biggest fan because the ice cream is more icy than creamy.  The sandwiches are just pure delicious – a nice chocolate cookie “crust” and a smooth and creamy cookie filled ice cream.  A great treat, so great that even those who don’t necessarily count calories or watch what they eat, reach for these when they’re in the freezer and I offer up ice cream.

One whole sandwich is 4 points plus values, which is completely worth it when in comparison to some of the other outrageously high point ice creams on n freezer shelves.  Plus the great things with Skinny Cows is since they’ve repackaged their boxes each ice cream sandwich is individually wrapped for better quality and freshness!

Blue Bunny – Birthday Party Ice Cream Sandwiches

I spotted and picked up a box of Blue Bunny Birthday Party Ice Cream Sandwiches while at the grocery store last weekend.  This came about after searching grocery freezer shelves looking for birthday cake/cake batter ice cream that was points friendly.  Cake Batter ice cream is one of my favorites and has been since a local ice cream stand hooked me on their flavor (because it’s seriously AH-MAZING).  I had been looking for the Skinny Cow Cupcake Batter ice cream cups but to no avail could not find them.  That is until I spotted these bad boys and they immediately went into my grocery cart.

Blue Bunny makes some of the best tasting ice cream (Blue Bunny is typically available at Walmart and Stop & Shop locations).  What drew me in were the caloric stats – 140 calories (3 Weight Watchers Points Plus) for a birthday party ice cream sandwich? Score!

These sandwiches are utterly delicious!  You get the best of both worlds – delicious ice cream and a light, carby “brownie” sandwich.  The one sandwich is enough to satisfy my sweet tooth – and my boyfriend enjoyed it as well.  So double thumbs up!
