With the mentioned ingredients you can create combinations of textures and have fun with your taste buds.

The one we have in mind is a simple combination of oatmeal cookies and vanilla ice cream. More accurately, we are making a sandwich with the vanilla ice cream in between the cookies. Or maybe just topped a cookie with vanilla ice cream and then some dark chocolate syrup.

You can make the dessert equation fun and try other flavors:

• Oatmeal cookie with Coffee flavored ice cream with dark chocolate topping
• Ginger cookie with orange sherbet or caramel ice cream with some dark chocolate
• Peanut butter cookie with banana caramel flavore ice cream plus some rum sauce or chocolate sauce
• Chocolate chip cookie with mint flavored ice cream and some dark chocolate syrup

These are just some examples and of course you can come up with a lot more combinations. Just see what’s available in the fridge or what you can quickly grab from the nearby grocery store.

Tips for this dessert:

• Choose a soft and chewy cookie that is easy to break with a spoon
• use a big scoop appropriate for the size of the cookie which you will top with ice cream
• If you are baking your own cookies double the salt or sprinkle some salt on the chocolate (these draws the flavor out)
• If you are making your own ice cream do not make it too sweet and be on the leaner side for the cream and egg yolks
• To achieve the hard chocolate shell on your ice cream, mix an ounce of chocolate with ¾ teaspoon of coconut oil.

Happy eating!

Brioche at Lenotre

Enter Lenotre and you can compare it to Tiffany & Co. but the goods here are edible. Their version of the brioche is nothing but delicious with candied pistachios. The brioche that you can find on Victor Hugo Avenue ends in the mouth very light and very buttery.

Chouquette Aux Marrons at Bonjour Bakery

Head to Bonjour Bakery at the 14th Arrondissement and order their Chouquette Aux Marrons. That might be hard to pronounce if you do not know French but just think of an éclair and fill it up with creamy and rich chest nut filling and then put some vanilla icing on top. Looks yummy? It is. Very.

Cupcakes at Berko

The world is crazy for cupcake and if you are in Paris, you only have to go to Berko and you will find the best one in the city. It must be their butter that makes it stand out from the rest of the cupcakes you can find anywhere else. The cupcakes are so moist and addicting.

Éclair in Stohrer

The Stohrer has been in business since the 1700s so there must be something that they do that made them last this long. Their chocolate éclair is the best in Paris but you have another great dessert in their coffee flavored ecclairs. Visit them at the 2nd Arrondissement.

Ice cream at Berthillon

You might have heard of the place in a food guide for Paris or seen them featured on TV. Well, you can believe everything that you have heard about this place and the ice cream. The taste is just amazing and the flavors ranging from salted caramel, creamy coconut, roasted pistachio are very exciting. They serve the ice cream in two cup cones in their store at the 4th Arrondissement.
