Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (226 grams)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar (150 grams)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed (165 grams)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (280 grams)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chip cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips (175 grams)
- 1 pint vanilla ice cream (about 473 ml)
- Sea salt, for sprinkling
Instructions
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are cool, take a scoop of vanilla ice cream and place it between two cookies. Gently press them together. Repeat until all cookies are used. For an extra touch, roll the edges in mini chocolate chips!
Notes
- Store any leftover sandwiches in an airtight container in the freezer.
- Let the ice cream sit out for a few minutes before scooping for easier spreading.
- For a dairy-free option, use vegan butter and coconut milk ice cream.
- For gluten-free, swap all-purpose flour for a gluten-free blend.
