How to Make Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches

If you follow along with me regularly, you know I’m not much of a chef, but I do love to put together grazing boards and bake easy desserts because I’ve gotta have my daily sugar fix. Most recently we celebrated National Ice Cream Day with homemade ice cream cookie sandwiches. I’m sure you’re like how do you have the time to observe all of these random food holidays?!  And I’m like how do you not?! LOL Because when it comes to snacks and treats, I always find the time! In reality though, the only reason I’m able to make time is because my Walmart+ membership makes it so easy!  With free same-day delivery from local stores, Walmart+ is the go-to membership to save time and money and make life easier. Walmart literally gets me whatever I need whenever I need it.

I always take full advantage of their free shipping and free delivery. We got all the ingredients to make these treats delivered right to our house so we could spend more time playing outdoors instead of dealing with a baby in the grocery store. Plus Walmart has all the best outdoor toys to entertain the little kiddies during parties.

If you want to make some fun treats with your kids this summer or if you’re already gearing up for back-to-school supplies and essentials, save yourself the time and effort and sign up for Walmart+. I promise it makes your life so much easier when it comes to grocery shopping or getting everything you need for the kids to go back to school as well as everyday life in general. It’s a new membership that brings together in-store and online benefits to help save Walmart customers more money. And don’t worry you’ll still get to enjoy fresh, high quality groceries with their unlimited free delivery from your local store — everything you need delivered whenever you need, at the low prices you love.

 Walmart+ makes shopping faster for families, which is exactly what I need these days especially when I’m scrambling to get everything ready for a party.

Membership costs $98 a year or $12.95 a month and includes a 15-day free trial period. Not having to take 3 full hours to get out of the house with Beck to the grocery store and back is worth every penny of the membership fee!

How to Make Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches

 Ingredients:

Large Cookies — We like chocolate-chip and M&M cookies, but you can use whatever kind you’d like. You could even bake your own cookies, but we got some from the bakery to save time.

Toppings: The sky’s the limit when it comes to toppings. In fact, I could think of a bunch of other toppings that would be delicious over ice cream, but we went with chocolate chips, Reeses Pieces, Oreos & Rainbow sprinkles.

Pint Size Ice Cream — Choose your favorite or go simple with vanilla and let the toppings be the flavor. We got the 3 flavors: vanilla, mint chocolate chip and strawberry.

how-to make ice cream sandwich

Steps:

    1. Crush all of your toppings in plastic baggies and then pour them into their own separate bowls.
    2. Use a sharp knife to cut your ice cream pint containers into 3-4 slices to create the perfect size ice cream filling for your cookie sandwich. The trick is to make the ice cream slice larger than the cookie so that it’s easier to roll into your toppings and ensure that everything sticks!
    3. Place your ice cream slice between two cookies and dip it into your topping of choice
    4. Be sure to place in the freezer immediately after making them unless you’re ready to serve! We laid ours out on tin foil in the freezer until we were ready to eat them!

The Jennifer Long Sleeve Smocked Dress

Morning everyone! Today is the official launch day of the most beautiful Long Sleeve Smocked Midi Dress that I designed with Gibsonlook. If you loved the smocked puff sleeve dress that we launched in April, then you’re going to love this style too. We made a couple updates for a fresh new look. It has the same comfy and flowy fit, but this time we added long sleeves, a square neckline and removed one of the tiers from the skirt of the dress. The Jennifer Long Sleeve Smocked Dress is feminine, flattering and comfortable. It comes in two colors: ivory and blush floral and I can’t decide which one I like more. The floral is sweet and flirty, but the sheer sleeves on the ivory swiss dot color is stunning. To celebrate, we’re offering 15% OFF your entire purchase with code: HAUTE15.

smocked floral dress

This dress is perfect for brunch, family photos, bridal showers and summer parties.  The fabric is super lightweight and breathable so you don’t have to worry about the sleeves being too hot. I plan to wear it to Beck’s baptism coming up. The Jennifer Long Sleeve Smocked Dress  is also great for baby showers, expecting moms and postpartum moms because it’s super giving and there is plenty of room through the stomach area.

Be sure to check out the Jennifer Shirt Dress and the Babydoll Dress that I designed.

***Full Disclosure: The bust isn’t lined in the ivory swiss dot color and is very sheer so you need to wear a nude bra and then you’re good to go. I’m wearing a nude bra in these photos. This is the exact one I’m wearing–> Nude Strapless Bra ***

MY SIZING AND HEIGHT FOR REFERENCE:

Most people don’t realize how petite I am so and I understand that knowing my sizes can help you determine what size to get.
I am 5 ft and I wear a size 27 in high waisted jeans & smalls in leggings. I’m currently a 34B and take size XS/S in dresses and tops, smalls in sports bras, and XS-S in outerwear. I typically size down in Gibsonlook pieces. I’m wearing a size XXS in the Jennifer Long Sleeve Smocked Dress.

midi dress

SIZING:

Be sure to size down because Gibsonlook runs large. I am wearing the size XXS and it’s still comfortable and spacious enough to move around in. I designed the Jennifer Long Sleeve Smocked Dress  with a midi length but if you’re petite like me (aka 5 ft) the dress will hit you right at the ankle, which still looks great with both flat sandals and heels.  It’s also fully lined through the skirt of the dress so you don’t have to worry about it being see through. However, you do need to wear a nude bra with the ivory dress because the bust isn’t lined and it’s very sheer.

 Scroll through this post to see how I styled the Jennifer Long Sleeve Smocked Dress.

What to Buy from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021

Morning everyone, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens up to Ambassador status tomorrow on Wednesday, July 14 so I’m sharing my wish lists and what to buy from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021. You can also always click on “shop” page on my navigation bar to shop my updated top picks.  I  will continually update throughout the sale. Wednesday, July 28th the sale will be open to all everyone so I highly suggest that you sign up to become a member (here) to shop before everything sells out. I’ll be posting a try-on haul over on my Instagram stories (@hauteofftherack) along with a blog post on all my purchases. So stay tuned.

This sale is known for offering some of Nordstrom’s top pieces like the BlankNYC suede moto jacket, the Barefoot Dreams cardigan and the coziest blanket year after year! I love shopping the Anniversary Sale because Nordstrom isn’t just marking down items that didn’t sell over the summer, they’re selling brand new closet staples and on-trend items at unbeatable prices for only a limited amount of time before the prices go back up.  It’s the ultimate time to go crazy on pre-fall denim, booties, jackets, Zella leggings, handbags, shoes, you name it! With that being said, I’ve taken my past seven years of N-sale experiences to put together my top 5 tips for shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021 to help you fully maximize your shopping experience. Check the post out here–> How to Shop The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

I will be sure to include photos from my IG story try-on haul including sizing and reviews in my next blog post once I receive everything since I wasn’t able to go to Nordstrom for try-ons in person this year for. If you don’t plan to sign up, at least make sure to utilize Nordstrom’s “wish list” feature because you can easily add of the items to your cart once you’re able to shop the sale.

What are the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access tiers?
Early Access is a special perk reserved for Nordstrom cardmembers. Your Nordy Club level is based on yearly spend amounts, though all cardmembers automatically start at Influencer status. You can only shop Anniversary Sale Early Access as a cardmember.

  • July 12: Early Access for cardmembers with Icon status.
  • July 14: Early Access for cardmembers with Ambassador status.
  • July 16: Early Access for cardmembers with Influencer status.
  • July 28: Anniversary Sale opens to the general public.

nuna stroller

My Crop Lite Leggings and nuna MIXX™ stroller are both included in the sale, but you can find my top (here). I’m actually wearing the top backwards because I thought it would cool that way and it did! My running shoes are old, but here is the new version —> Adidas UltraBoost

One of the best investment items you can snag from the sale is the nuna MIXX™ Next Stroller! It’s a Pack-up and go anywhere stroller with a smooth ride that you can easily maneuver with one hand and lay flat for quick naps on the go. I especially like the fact that its compact fold lets it fit into tighter spaces, so you can take more trips to more places. We got this one for my mom to keep at her house and pack along to our beach condo. You can face the seat either way and the age range is from birth up to 50 lbs so you can definitely get a long use out of it. Head over to my #Nsale IG story highlights to see a quick tutorial!

My sizing and height for reference:

Most people don’t realize how petite I am so and I understand that knowing my sizes can help you determine what size to get. I always disclose when I get pieces altered since I often do modify my clothing.
I am a size 27 in high waisted jeans & a small in high waisted bottoms, size S in tops (34B), Small in sports bras, small in leggings
– I am 5′ ft

Affordable Fashion Finds for Summer

Hey everyone, when it comes to styling outfits, you all know that I like to feature a mix of high-low priced items here on Haute Off The Rack so today I’m partnering with Walmart to show you some super cute affordable fashion finds for summer. I’ve been shopping at Walmart since I was a kid. I remember my mom taking me and my sister to the store when were little and we would always beg for Oreos and Doritos, but she rarely ever gave in. Then I would find 536,798 more things I wanted on the shoe and handbag aisle. I remember one time vividly that she actually said yes and she bought me and cousin matching black purses a small red dragon design on the corner. I can’t say I’d wear that bag today, but I still love that memory of shopping with my mom in Walmart.

Okay…one more story because I’m feeling nostalgic. When I was in middle school Birkenstock’s were super popular and I wanted a pair sooo bad, but my mom was and still is very frugal so she wouldn’t buy them for me. Well, one day we were shopping in Walmart and I spotted a pair of brown clogs that looked just like the pair I wanted and this was fortunately another one of those times that she actually said yes. I remember wearing them to the movies with a pair of jeans and a rugby polo. Good times!

Anyway, I love how these little memories of shopping with my mom pop into my head as I head into the ladies department or turn onto the snack aisle in Walmart. Haha! Speaking of the women’s department, I picked up some really cute activewear pieces from Walmart the other day (see below). I also found a ton of affordable clothing, shoes and accessories for summer that I rounded up below and they’re all available online.
