Ingredients: 1 cup diced strawberries. 1 cup diced rhubarb. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 2 cups heavy cream. 1 cup whole milk. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 4 large egg yolks. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 16 soft cookies of your choice such as sugar cookies or shortbread.

Instructions: Dice the rhubarb, strawberries, and 1/4 cup of granulated sugar and put them all in a saucepan. For about 8 to 10 minutes, cook over medium heat until the fruits soften and the juices come out. Take it off the heat and let it cool down all the way. Heavy cream, whole milk, and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar should all be mixed together in a different saucepan. Stir it every now and then as you heat it over medium-low heat until it starts to simmer. Mix the egg yolks in a bowl with a whisk until they are smooth. Pour about half a cup of the hot cream mixture slowly into the egg yolks while whisking them all the time to temper them. The egg yolk mixture should be put back into the saucepan with the rest of the cream mixture. For about 5 to 7 minutes, stir the mixture all the time over medium heat until it gets thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do not let it get too hot. Use a fine-mesh sieve to pour the custard into a clean bowl. Add the vanilla extract and mix well. Once it's cool enough to touch, cover it and put it in the fridge until it's completely cold, preferably overnight. Churn the custard in an ice cream maker according to the directions that came with it after it has been chilled. Spread half of the cooled strawberry-rhubarb mixture on the bottoms of 8 cookies while the ice cream is being made. To make sandwiches, put the last 8 cookies on top. Take the ice cream out of the ice cream maker when it's soft-serve consistency and spread it on the bottom cookies of each sandwich. Add the rest of the strawberry-rhubarb mixture on top, and then the other cookies. Put a piece of plastic wrap around each sandwich and freeze them for at least 4 hours, or until they are firm. Serve and have fun!
