Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.75 cup Chocolate chips
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the sugar dissolves completely.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually 20–25 minutes.
Once the ice cream reaches a thick, creamy consistency, transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up.
While the ice cream firms, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and baking soda, then gradually fold it into the wet ingredients until fully combined.
Stir in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
To serve, scoop the vanilla ice cream onto a cookie and top with another cookie to make ice cream sandwiches, or serve the ice cream alongside the cookies for a dessert platter.
