Using Eggs and Vanilla:
Whenever you add eggs to make cookies, first break one egg and mix it well, then use the second egg. Then add vanilla extract to it and keep mixing until it dissolves.
Pay attention if there is any flour stuck to the sides of your bowl then scrape it if you need to
Combining the Dry and Blue Mixture:
Now mix the dry ingredients you have with the wet ingredients making sure you don’t over knead the dough, mix slowly and fully combine once it is well combined then add the chocolate chips and use a spatula to fold it in.
Baking and Scooping the Cookies:
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon. Drop evenly sized balls of dough onto the baking sheet making sure to space them apart or they will stick together.
- Make sure to make a sandwich size and make it about 2.5 to 3 inches in diameter or a little bigger or smaller. (You can adjust the target size accordingly) Preheat the oven and bake for 11 to 12 minutes.
- When it is light golden brown around the edges and soft in the middle then it is ready to be removed.
- To take it out use a tray or any big container and keep it aside for 6 to 7 minutes and after it cools down completely hang it on a wire rack.
When to use ice cream:
First take out the ice cream from the fridge and let it soften at room temperature. By then your cookies will also cool down and after it comes to room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes you are ready to scoop it. Keep in mind that it should not be runny.
Many people make ice cream at home. Keep in mind that if you use homemade ice cream then first make sure it is frozen for 4 hours and then use it, otherwise you can leave it overnight and use it the next day so that it freezes properly.
Assembling the cookies:
If you are making it at home then it is okay to make some mistakes but you should not hurry while assembling the cookies. Join them in equal sizes and then place them on the baking sheet in a proper manner. Put the weight of one cookie on top of all the cookies. This will hold the ice cream properly and a good cookie will be prepared.
Using and Assembling the Sandwiches:
Now assemble the sandwiches and spread all the cookies on a scoop of slightly soft ice cream (don’t use ice cream with too much ice as it will make the cookies tasteless), then use a big spoon to spread it.
After placing the second cookie, press it gently and spread the ice cream evenly on all the sides.
Tips: Do not press the cookies too hard otherwise they will break and the ice cream will spill out, making all your hard work go waste.
Optional Tips / Coating:
You were told in the beginning that if you want to add crushed nuts, mini chips or whatever you like, first put it in a bowl and roll all the sandwiches around the ice cream edges as you like for the taste.
Tip: This is mostly important for parties or kids treats, and looks great, which makes you more popular sometimes and you win everyone’s heart. And believe me this cookie ice cream sandwich is awesome.
Refrigerating:
- Refrigerating: Refrigerator can be used to freeze ice cream. Whatever sandwich you have placed on the baking sheet, keep it in the refrigerator so that it does not melt.
- Remember to keep it till it becomes solid or use the refrigerator for about 1 to 2 hours so that the ice cream freezes well and it tastes good and becomes famous, which remains everyone’s favorite.
Serving and storing:
- When it is solid, serve it immediately, otherwise keep the sandwich in an airtight container. If you do not want to keep it in the container, you can wrap it in plastic wrap.
- If not needed, you can keep it in the refrigerator for two weeks. Keep in mind that whenever you serve it to someone, first take it out of the refrigerator and keep it at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes, let it soften a little and then use it.

Hygienic hands: You all know that ice cream melts very quickly. Make sure you use gloves to keep your hands clean and away from mess.
Use lightly underbaked cookies: When making cookies, underbake them a little so that the middle is a little soft and the ice cream makes for a better sandwich. Overbaked cookies become hard and when frozen, the sandwiches are not chewy.

- Use chocolate ice cream with peanut butter cookies
- Use vanilla ice cream with snickers double cookies
- Use cookie ice cream with double chocolate cookies
- Use double chocolate with butter pecan ice cream
