Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches (Print Version)

Vanilla ice cream layered between soft chocolate chip cookies for a fun, frozen dessert delight.

# Ingredients:

→ Cookies

01 - 16 soft chocolate chip cookies, approximately 7–8 cm in diameter (homemade or store-bought)

→ Ice Cream

02 - 1 litre vanilla ice cream, slightly softened

→ Optional Toppings

03 - 100 g mini chocolate chips
04 - 100 g rainbow sprinkles
05 - 100 g chopped nuts, such as peanuts or pecans

# Steps:

01 - If using homemade cookies, ensure they are fully cooled before beginning assembly.
02 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
03 - Place 8 cookies, flat side up, onto the prepared baking sheet.
04 - Spoon 60–75 g of softened vanilla ice cream onto each cookie base.
05 - Gently press a second cookie, flat side down, onto the ice cream to create a sandwich.
06 - Roll the edges of each sandwich in mini chocolate chips, rainbow sprinkles, or chopped nuts, as desired.
07 - Return the assembled sandwiches to the baking sheet and freeze for at least 1 hour until firm.
08 - Serve immediately after freezing or wrap each sandwich in parchment and store in the freezer for up to 1 month.

# Notes:

01 - Let ice cream rest at room temperature for 5–10 minutes for easier scooping.
02 - Try different ice cream flavours such as chocolate, strawberry, or mint chip to vary the taste.
03 - A variety of cookie styles such as oatmeal or double chocolate works well for this dessert.
04 - Pair finished sandwiches with a glass of cold milk or coffee.
