Ingredients
– 2 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 and 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 3/4 cup unsalted butter
– 3/4 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk, at room temperature
– 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
– 1 and 1/4 cups mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
– 3 cups vanilla ice cream or preferred flavor
– 1 cup mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, or finely chopped nuts for rolling edges
Instructions
1-Getting started with ice cream sandwiches: begins with preheating your oven to 350ยฐF and lining baking sheets with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients like flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt to build a strong base. Then, in another bowl, beat the butter and sugars until creamy for that perfect cookie texture.
2-Next, add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well to combine everything smoothly. Gradually stir in the dry mix followed by the mini chocolate chips to form the dough. Scoop the dough in about 1.5-tablespoon portions, spacing them 3 inches apart on the sheets.
3-Bake for 12 to 13 minutes until the edges turn lightly brown, keeping the centers soft. Let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack. Once cooled, assemble by placing ice cream between two cookies and rolling the edges in extras like mini chocolate chips.
4-Assembly Steps:
- Place one cookie upside down and add about 1/4 cup ice cream on top.
- Gently spread the ice cream and cover with another cookie, pressing lightly.
- Roll the edges in 1 cup mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, or nuts.
- Wrap each sandwich individually and freeze for at least 3 hours.
