For the gingerbread cookies, we used Betty Crocker's gingerbread people recipe, and cut them with a pumpkin shaped cookie cutter.
For the ice cream, we mixed:

- 1 pint of heavy cream
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons vanilla pudding mix
- 1 3/4 cup canned pumpkin pie mix
We mixed them together in a two pint container. We sealed the container with duct tape, and placed it surrounded by ice, layered with ice cream/rock salt, in a larger container, which we also sealed with duct tape. Then, we kicked the containers around the yard for about a half an hour. Finally, we removed the inner container, rinsed it off, stirred the contents, and placed it in the freezer for a couple of hours.
After the ice cream had hardened a bit, we scooped it with a spoon onto the cookies, to make the sandwiches. Then returned to the sandwiches to the freezer to set up a little more before eating. The ice cream turned out really yummy, by the way, as good as any I've ever bought from the store.
It's great to be a homeschooler.
