Ice cream sandwich with peanut butter cookies on a white plate

Ingredients

Cookies:

1 cup runny peanut butter

1/2 cup coconut sugar

1 egg

Ice Cream:

1 pint whatever ice cream you love. I used Aldi’s version of vanilla Halo Top.

Chocolate Topping:

1/2 cup Chocolate Chips ( I used Enjoy Life Foods)

1 tbsp coconut oil  

Method

Cookies: 

  1. Preheat oven to 325F 
  2. In a bowl, whisk 1 egg. Then add in peanut butter and coconut sugar. Mix together. 
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a cookie scoop to make the cookies. Place them on the parchment paper. Makes 12 cookies. 
  4. Bake for 15 minutes. 
  5. Remove from the oven and place the pan in the freezer for 1 hour so the cookies harden. 

Ice Cream Sandwiches: 

  1. Once the cookies have been in the freezer for an hour, remove. 
  2. Add 2 scoops of ice cream in between 2 cookies. Because the cookies are frozen, you should be able to squish them together to flatten out the ice cream. 
  3. Optional: melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips with 1 tbsp of coconut oil to make a chocolate layer for the cookies. 
  4. Dip 1/2 of the sandwiches in the chocolate layer. 
  5. Place the cookies back on the parchment paper, put back in the fridge for 2-3 hours. 
  6. Enjoy! Makes 6 sandwiches. Store in the freezer.
