Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and sugar together until creamy and smooth, about 2 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, and slightly flatten them with the back of the spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are firm. Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack.
Once the cookies are completely cool, scoop about 1/2 cup of low sodium vanilla ice cream onto the flat side of a cookie. Top with another cookie and gently press them together to create a sandwich.
Repeat with remaining cookies and ice cream.
Wrap each sandwich in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm before serving.
