Ingredients

Cookies

  • ¾ cup salted butter room temperature
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1 large egg yolk room temperature
  • ¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1¾ cups all purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1½ cups chocolate chips

Filling

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 375°F/190℃.
  • Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • With an electric mixer, beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Mix in egg and egg yolk.
  • Stir in vanilla.
  • Add flour and baking soda.
  • Mix only to combine.
  • Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Use a 3 Tablespoon scoop to portion dough onto prepared pans.
  • Bake for 12 minutes, until lightly browned but still soft.
  • Allow to cool on sheet pans.
  • Turn 7 cookies upside down on sheet pan.
  • Place ½ cup ice cream on top of each upside down cookie.
  • Top with remaining 7 cookies.
  • Dip sides in chocolate chips.
  • Place in freezer to harden.

Notes

  • Do not over mix the cookie dough!
  • If baking multiple pans at a time, be sure to check on the cookies at about 10 minutes into the bake time.
  • To achieve a perfectly round cookie, take a large round biscuit cutter and place around your cookie while it's still hot. Move the cutter in a circular motion around the cookie to help re-shape it.
  • Don’t forget to line your sheet pans.
  • Be careful when assembling the ice cream sandwich! If you press too hard, you might break the top or bottom cookie.
  • Work quickly as the ice cream melts fast!
  • Keep the cookies on parchment paper when you freeze them.
  • If your ice cream is getting too soft/melting, freeze the ice cream sandwiches before rolling in chocolate chips.
  • Freeze times may vary. Anywhere from 1-3 hours.
