Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cookies
- 1 scoop of ice cream
Instructions
- Remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it soften slightly for 2-3 minutes at room temperature to make scooping easier.
- Select two cookies of similar size for each ice cream sandwich. Ensure the cookies are completely cooled if they are freshly baked.
- Using an ice cream scoop or large spoon, place one scoop of ice cream in the center of one cookie.
- Gently press the second cookie on top of the ice cream scoop, applying light pressure to create a sandwich. The ice cream should spread evenly between the cookies.
- If desired, roll the edges of the sandwich in additional toppings like chopped nuts, sprinkles, or mini chocolate chips.
- Place each completed ice cream sandwich on a parchment-lined baking sheet or plate.
- Immediately transfer the sandwiches to the freezer for 5 minutes to firm up the ice cream if it has become too soft.
- Serve immediately or wrap individually in plastic wrap and store in the freezer for up to 1 week.
Tips
- Choose your cookies wisely: Use cookies that are sturdy and flat to ensure easy assembly and a clean look.
- Let the ice cream soften just slightly - this makes scooping and spreading much easier.
- Work quickly to prevent the ice cream from melting too much.
- For extra flavor, experiment with different cookie and ice cream combinations.
- Keep a parchment-lined baking sheet in the freezer to quickly stop the ice cream from melting.
- If you want to get fancy, roll the edges in fun toppings like crushed cookies, sprinkles, or chopped nuts.
- For a make-ahead option, wrap individual sandwiches in plastic wrap to store in the freezer for up to a week.
