Figure 1. Panini party dinner: salad and three mini-panini's.
Figure 2. Left: Caprese panini with zucchini (mozzarella, tomato, sauteed zucchini, and fresh basil on multi-grain baguette). Top: Apple and prosciutto panini (thinly sliced granny smith apples, crisped prosciutto, Gouda, and honey mustard on a multi-grain baguette. Right: Roast beef and onion panini (roast beef, caramelized onions, Gruyere cheese, and Dijon mustard on ciabatta).
To make your own panini: assemble your favorite combination, spray each side of sandwich with cooking spray, and cook on a panini press until bread is brown and cheese is melted.

@Imagine: My mom made these. Here is what she told me to tell you.
ReplyDelete"Use the chocolate chip recipe on the back of the Nestle's bag using semi-sweet chips. I used a cookie baller to make them similar sizes but you can drop by tsp onto the cookie sheet. Slice ice cream when soft enough to get the knife through, then use a circle cookie cutter to cut the ice cream, placing it between two cookies. Wrap in plastic wrap and refreeze.
Yummie. Of couse you could just stick a home-made chocolate chip cookie into a dish of ice cream but it's much more fun to eat as a sandwich.
Serve to people you love."
Oh wow! Those are made with love --- lots of work and calories, but they look worth it!
