• Take 2 cooled cookies and sandwich an ice cream slice in between, pressing firmly.
• Roll the edges of the ice cream sandwich in the chocolate chunks, if desired. Repeat with the remaining cookies and ice cream.

CHOCOLATE COOKIE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Combine the butter, shortening, brown sugar and granulated sugar in a large bowl and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the cocoa powder, baking powder, vanilla and salt and beat until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add 1 1/2 cups flour and 3 tablespoons water. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour and 3 more tablespoons water and beat until the dough is smooth. (Add 2 to 3 more tablespoons water if the dough seems dry.)
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide the dough in half. Pat each piece into a flat square on a lightly floured surface, then roll out until to 1/4 inch thick. Cut into 2-to-3-inch squares with a paring knife or cut out shapes with cookie cutters. Transfer the cookies to the prepared baking sheets. Poke several holes in each cookie with a skewer (to look like a classic ice cream sandwich cookie), then transfer to the freezer until hard, about 10 minutes.
• Bake the cookies until set, about 10 minutes. Let cool slightly on the baking sheets, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Sandwich with ice cream and fillings; freeze at least 45 minutes before serving. To store, wrap the ice cream sandwiches individually in plastic wrap and freeze up to 2 days.
• Ice cream and filling combinations:
• Black raspberry ice cream, raspberries and fudge sauce
• Mint chip ice cream and marshmallow cream
• Chocolate ice cream, dulce de leche and fudge sauce
• Vanilla ice cream, fudge sauce and cherry jam

SMALL-BATCH CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. (Using a light-colored pan will help you see the color of the butter as it browns.) The butter will begin to foam. Cook, stirring constantly, until the butter is a dark amber color (darker browned butter is better for baked goods), about 6 minutes. Transfer the butter immediately to a small bowl to prevent burning. Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Combine the sugars, egg, vanilla and browned butter in a large bowl. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. (Do not overmix the dough.) Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
• Scoop 2 ounces or 1/4 cup of the dough with an #16 ice cream scoop and drop onto the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart, making 8 cookies total. Press down on the cookies slightly to flatten them a little bit (see Cook's Note). Refrigerate the dough for 1 hour on the baking sheet. (Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies retain their shape when baked-no more flat cookies!) You can also freeze the dough at this point and pull it out whenever you want cookies. Freeze it in an airtight container and thaw on the cookie sheets for 15 minutes before baking.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the cookies lightly with fleur de sel. Bake until the cookies are just cooked through and slightly golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Allow them to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• To assemble the ice cream sandwiches, scoop 3/4 cup of ice cream onto the center of one cookie. Place a second cookie on top, then gently press until the ice cream meets the edge of the cookies. Smooth the edges of the ice cream with your finger, then place on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining cookies and ice cream to make 4 sandwiches total, then re-freeze until hard, 1 to 2 hours.
• When the cookies are frozen, prepare a double boiler: Bring a few inches of water to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Add the chocolate to a medium heatproof bowl and set it over the saucepan, making sure the bowl doesn't touch the water. Stir the chocolate until it's completely melted. Stir in the coconut oil until incorporated, then turn off the heat. Remove the bowl from the double boiler and let the chocolate to cool to about 80 degrees, about 15 minutes (see Cook's Note).
• Dip half of an ice cream sandwich into the chocolate, allowing any excess to drip off. Place back on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches and chocolate, then place back into the freezer to set, 10 to 15 minutes.

CHOCOLATE-CHIP COOKIE ICE-CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• To make the cookies, tip the sugars and butter into a large bowl. Get a grown-up to help you use an electric hand mixer to blend them together until the mixture looks smooth and creamy, and a little paler in colour.
• Carefully break in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well between each egg and pausing to scrape down the sides with a spatula. Mix in the vanilla. (To avoid unwanted crunchy bits, get your helper to crack the eggs into a separate bowl first, then it's easy to pick out any shell before tipping into the mixture.)
• Sift in the flour and baking powder, then mix well with a wooden spoon.
• Stir through the chocolate chunks. Use your hands to squeeze the dough together in 1 big lump, then split into 2 even pieces. Put each piece on a sheet of cling film.
• Roll each piece of dough in the cling film so that they form thick sausage shapes, then seal the ends. Put them in the fridge and chill for at least 3 hrs or overnight - can be frozen at this point.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Take the dough rolls out of the fridge, unwrap and use a small knife to slice each one into 12 pieces, so you have 24 in total.
• Place the slices on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Ask a grown-up to put this in the oven to bake for 20 mins or until the cookies are golden brown on the edges, but still pale in the centre.
• Allow to cool slightly before lifting them onto a wire rack to cool completely. Sandwich the cookies together with ice cream and dig in!
