Ingredients
- 16 cookies (chocolate chip, sugar, brownie, oatmeal, or your choice)
- 2 cups ice cream (vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, or preferred flavor)
- Optional: mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, crushed nuts, or crushed cookies for rolling edges
- Wax paper or parchment paper (for wrapping and freezing)
Instructions
- Let the ice cream soften at room temperature for 5–10 minutes.
- Lay half of the cookies flat-side up on a tray or parchment paper.
- Scoop about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of ice cream onto each cookie.
- Top with another cookie, flat-side down, and gently press to form a sandwich.
- Roll the edges in sprinkles, chocolate chips, or crushed nuts if desired.

- Once firm, wrap each sandwich in wax or parchment paper and store in an airtight container or freezer bag.
- Serve directly from the freezer and enjoy!
Notes
Use soft, chewy cookies for easier biting when frozen.Work quickly to prevent the ice cream from melting during assembly.Customize with different cookie and ice cream flavors for variety.Store individually wrapped sandwiches to prevent sticking and freezer burn.Let sit at room temperature for a minute before eating if too firm.
