Peanut Butter Bacon Cookie Strawberry Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches

September 9 (today!) is National I Love Food Day. Yes, that’s a real holiday. When you think about it, isn’t every day I Love Food Day when you’re a food lover?

Either way, if there’s one day a year to go all out, this is it. So why not take the most crave-worthy flavors and put them together into one amazing dessert worthy of a day devoted to food?  Peanut butter bacon cookies sandwiched around strawberry chocolate chip ice cream, shaped into piggies. I can’t think of a more gluttonous way to celebrate I Love Food Day!
