Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 125 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 100 grams Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 liter Ice cream (flavor of your choice)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 centimeters apart.
Lightly flatten each ball of dough with the back of a spoon or your fingers to create a disc shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cookies cool, allow the ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.
Once the cookies are completely cool, place one scoop of ice cream onto the flat side of a cookie. Top with another cookie, flat side down, to create a sandwich.
Gently press the cookies together to spread the ice cream evenly to the edges. Repeat with the remaining cookies and ice cream.
Wrap each ice cream sandwich tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper, and freeze for at least 1-2 hours to set.
Serve and enjoy your homemade ice cream sandwiches!
