Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches

Ingredients

For The Cookies:
• 2 sticks butter, at room temperature
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 ½ cups chocolate chips

Assembly:
• 1 batch of Homemade-ish Peanut Butter Chocolate Ice Cream
• 1 batch of Homemade-ish Dulce De Leche Ice Cream
• 1 batch of Homemade-ish Strawberry Ice Cream
• 1 cup mini chocolate chips
• 1 cup pretzels, chopped
• 3/4 cup pistachios, chopped

Instructions

For the Cookies:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter, sugar, brown sugar, until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla and egg until fully combined. Add in the flour, baking soda, and salt into the mixer and mix until just combined. Pour in the chocolate chips and mix until fully incorporated.
3. Drop the dough by balls of about 2 tablespoons around two inches apart on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Roll into balls with your hands. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown on the edges and top.
4. Cool the cookies for one minute on the cookie sheets then transfer them onto a cooling rack.

Assembly:
1. Place the cookies in the freezer to cool while preparing the ice cream.
2. Scoop out three scoops of each ice cream flavor and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Pop the sheet in the freezer to cool down for 20 minutes.
3. Place the mini chocolate chips, pretzels, and pistachios in separate bowls. Dip the sides of each sandwich into the bowls to coat the edges. Pair the peanut butter chocolate ice cream with the mini chocolate chips, the dulce de Leche with the pretzels, and the strawberry with the pistachios. Serve immediately or place on a sheet pan in the freezer until ready to eat.
