Even though back to school is right around the corner, there is still plenty of summertime left. Although we don't get to go many places besides the lake these days, we still manage to have a great time because we always center our activities around delicious summertime meals. While we all love a good backyard barbecue and the food that entails, the most satisfying part of our cookout is usually ending it with a sweet treat. Because it's so hot out lately, baking isn't very appealing. That's why I love keeping baked goods from Entenmann's® on hand. This summer, we are using a lot of Entenmann's Minis for out dessert needs for quick, easy and scrumptious snacking. 

When it comes to Entenmann's, everyone has a favorite. From their cakes, pies, donuts and other baked goods, there's something for everyone. I have been using the minis pound cakes to make my Strawberry Shortcakes for One all summer, but I decided this week to swap over to a more decadent desert for our backyard dining by purchasing the Entenmann's Minis Brownie Chocolate Chip to make these incredible Brookie Ice Cream Sandwiches.

Dessert has never been easier or more delicious. Simply slice Entenmann's Minis Brownie Chocolate Chip in half, spread 2 tablespoons of vanilla (or any flavor of your choosing) on the bottom half of the brownie, then top with the other half. Wrap the ice cream sandwich in plastic wrap, then store in the freezer until ready to eat.

Or if you want to go even simpler with your backyard dessert, place an Entenmann's Minis Cherry or Apple Snack Pie on a plate topped with ice cream for a fruit pie a la mode that's ready to eat in seconds.

Entenmann's Minis are the same variety of baked goods that you know and love, from pound and crumb cakes, brownies, apple and cherry pies and more, only smaller and individually wrapped. You can find them at your local grocers (check the store locator to find your favorites near you) to create your own fun desserts for backyard dining this summer.
