Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.75 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.75 cups brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 quart ice cream flavor of choice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula.
Scoop dough using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop and place on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers remain soft. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies have cooled, take your ice cream from the freezer and let it soften for about 5 minutes.
Scoop a generous portion of ice cream (about 1/4 cup) onto the flat side of one cookie. Gently press a second cookie on top to form a sandwich.
Repeat with the remaining cookies and ice cream.
Wrap each sandwich tightly in plastic wrap and place them in the freezer for at least 1 hour to firm up before serving.
