You can't go wrong with any Blue Bell ice cream flavor that tastes like it was hand-cracked for your half-gallon that morning so here are five ways we're putting this new holiday flavor to good use once we have that first bowl or two.

Available in the half-gallon size, Blue Bell Creamieries Christmas Cookies flavor is only available in grocery stores for a limited time. Make sure to keep an eye out for other holiday ice cream flavors which include Peppermint, a cool and refreshing peppermint ice cream sprinkled with peppermint candy pieces.

1. Place the seasonal flavor between two actual Christmas cookies to form a delicious ice cream sandwich, and you can even dip one end in a magic chocolate shell.

2. Blend it up in a thick and creamy milkshake using our ratio of milk to ice cream for the perfect consistency.

3. Gift a half-gallon away this season as a host or hostess gift. You can never go wrong with ice cream, and it's a sweet treat for the couple to enjoy once their holiday party is over.

4. Whip up an icebox pie. Sure, it might be a summertime specialty, but Christmas Cookies is a flavor that's just asking to be spread out in a graham cracker crust.

5. Turn it into an ice cream float or soda by pairing it with your favorite cream soda. Everyone will be asking for seconds!
