Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup vanilla ice cream (or your favorite flavor)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper to ensure the cookies do not stick.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3: In a large bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until well blended. Beat in the vanilla extract, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy.

Step 4: Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon.

Step 5: Drop cookie dough 1/4 cup at a time onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about 3 inches apart.

Step 6: Bake for 12-15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are lightly toasted. Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Step 7: Once the cookies are completely cooled, take one cookie and place a scoop of vanilla ice cream (or your chosen flavor) on the flat side. Top with another cookie to form a sandwich.

Step 8: Serve immediately or wrap the cookie sandwiches in plastic wrap and freeze for up to a week.
