What kind of ice cream is used in ice cream sandwiches?

Typically, vanilla ice cream is used in ice cream sandwiches, though Neapolitan ice cream is fairly common too. Some will make the vanilla ice cream a little fancier with chocolate chips or “unicorn confetti”. There is a type of ice cream sandwich called Mississippi mud that is made with chocolate ice cream with fudge ripples. The ice cream in this recipe would be more in line with a Pudding Pop (80’s kids know what they are.) with cream cheese and Cool Whip to give it more body. The marshmallow creme acts as both a binder and a flavoring agent. 

What can you use for s’mores instead of graham crackers?
