What ingredients you need to make copycat Good Humor Toasted Almond Bars:

• Pint of vanilla ice cream – can use vegan ice cream if preferred! I used a traditional vanilla ice cream from the store
• Raw almonds – I like to buy organic/raw and toast them myself but you could buy toasted almonds too
• Coconut sugar – you will add this to the almonds when you toast them to sweeten the ice cream pops
• Butter or oil – either works and you just need some to grease the pan for the almonds/sugar

How to make Toasted Almond Ice Cream Bars:

1. Let the ice cream thaw out for a few minutes then begin scooping and pressing into each ice pop molds (I made 4) and spread across with spatula so it is smooth and insert popsicle sticks
2. Add to freezer to set for at least 3-4 hours or overnight
3. Next take almonds and add to food processor and pulse to break up into crumbs (be sure not to over pulse or you will get a meal) or you can also just chop with a knife
4. Warm a large skillet with butter then add the almonds and coconut sugar and mix and toast on medium/low heat for about 5-10 minutes, mixing every minute or so
5. Remove from heat and add to a plate or shallow bowl
6. Remove ice pops from freezer and gently take out of mold and cover in the almond mixture and add to a baking sheet, pressing down the almonds so they stick
7. Add back to freezer to set for at least 15 minutes and store in freezer until ready to eat!
