Product of the week - ice cream molds

Here is another wonderful Williams Sonoma product - ice cream molds in the shape of animals. There is a pig, a cow and a star and we made these for Lucy's first birthday. Firstly we made a batch of brownies and a batch of blondies. Then we cut out lots of shapes. One shape goes into the bottom of the mold, ice cream is pushed into the mold and then a shape of top. The 'stamp' is then used to push the whole thing together and leave an imprint of a face or star on top. The trick to making these is to use very cold ice cream. In fact if the ice cream has been old of the freezer for longer than 5 minutes the whole thing won't work properly as the ice cream will melt and squeeze up the sides of the sandwich. Yum!
