Homemade Waffle Bowls

Homemade Waffle Bowls filled with tart apricot and creme fraiche ice cream and sweetened with brown sugar almonds and honey. The perfect adult indulgence.

Grilled Apricot Ice Cream in Homemade Waffle Bowls

Summer is in full swing! I hope everyone is celebrating today with The 3 F’s – friends, family, and food. We sure are! We still have a month before school is back in session and we are taking advantage of everyday!

I’ve got some scrumptious Apricot Ice Cream and Homemade Waffle Bowls just waiting for a meet up!

Aren’t these just beautiful?

Pizzelle Cookies are easy to make and so delicious. I love them during the holidays.

I tried a few  different ways to shape the bowls. The first thing I tried was shaping them over a lemon. This proved difficult because the cookie is very hot and most of them looked like a Tri-pointed hat.  The more “frilly” looking bowls were made this way. I thought they were pretty, unique, and very feminine.

Then I got a dessert bowl. This is just a small one cup bowl that I pushed the hot cookie into and let it harden. This provided a more distinct bowl shape and didn’t burn my fingers.

I loved how they turned out.

They were so pretty with the flower design in the middle.

Playing off the brown sugar and honey in the ice cream, I decided to make some brown sugar almond crunchies and honey to it.  I liked snacking on the extra crunchies just bu themselves. I’m sure they would be yummy on a spinach salad with Mandarin oranges. So not healthy, but so good!

I hope that you are having a great summer! Enjoy!

If you’re looking for another way to serve the apricot ice cream, you can serve it in a pie crust bowl, a cinnamon sugar tortilla bowls, or a chocolate candy bowls!
