🥘Ingredients

For the Cookies

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

For the Ice Cream Sandwiches

1/2 gallon of your favorite vanilla ice cream
Toppings of your choice (sprinkles, chopped nuts, etc.)

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat oven to 350°F.
2Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
4This should take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.
5Add the vanilla extract and egg, and mix well until fully incorporated.
6In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
7Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
8Fold in the chocolate chips.
9The dough should be thick and slightly sticky.
10Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
11Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
12The centers should still be soft.
13Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
14While the cookies are cooling, soften the ice cream slightly at room temperature.
15This will make it easier to spread.
16Once the cookies are completely cooled, take one cookie and place a generous scoop of ice cream in the center.
17Place another cookie on top, pressing down gently to form a sandwich.
18Repeat with remaining cookies and ice cream.
19If desired, roll the edges of the sandwich in sprinkles, chopped nuts, or other toppings.
20Place the sandwiches on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
21Serve immediately for a soft, creamy center, or store in the freezer for a firmer texture.
