Ice cream sandwiches in a pan? Are you kidding me? I could barely believe it myself until I cut these. They were just perfect. Perfect square shaped ice cream sandwiches that were sturdy enough to hold up to the hand of a six year old! Now, that I found impressive! I used Cocoa Pebbles as my cereal, but you could use Cocoa Krispies as the original recipe did. I also chose cookies ‘n cream ice cream. Again, choose whatever flavor your family approves of!

Can the nuts be omitted? If not what would be a good substitute?
Thanks,
