Summary
there’s no better summer drunchie than a classic ice cream sandwich, and this take on the simple treat is inspired by disneyland’s chipwich! the recipe is simple: just sandwich a thick layer of vanilla ice cream between two extra-large chocolate chip cookies, then roll the edges in chocolate chips. this dessert comes together super quickly thanks to a simple hack- rather than scooping and smushing ice cream onto the cookies, create perfectly sized, even layers by slicing straight through the pint’s packaging. disclaimer: if you’ve been drinking, maybe ask a sober friend for some help with this part… it may be delicious, but no ice cream sandwich is worth losing a finger.
Ingredients
- 1 (16.5 oz.) package ready-to-bake cookie dough
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- preheat the oven to 350ºF.
- to create extra large cookies, separate packaged cookie dough into four equal portions, rolling each dough portion into a ball. with clean hands, compress each ball to flatten slightly. space evenly on a lined cookie sheet and bake until golden brown, around 15-20 minutes.
- once cookies have finished baking, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. while cookies are cooling, pour chocolate chips into a shallow bowl and set aside.
- use a serrated knife to cut the pint of ice cream straight through the packaging to make thick, round slices.
- pop ice cream slices out of the packaging and place each onto a cookie, then sandwich with another cookie. roll each sandwich in chocolate chips to adhere. enjoy immediately or freeze until ready to eat.
