Homemade Ice cream Sandwiches

If you follow me on IG (Instagram) you know that I made Ice Cream sandwiches last week. RJ said it would be his dream come true if someone could make the cookie. So off I go trying to find the recipe, and what do you know, I found it!They were much easier to make than I imagined and only a few ingredients. So if you're an ice cream sandwich fiend like my husband this is worth trying.

Wax Paper
Rolling Pin
Cookie sheet

3/4 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons of brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups  all purpose flour
1/2 cup dark cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix the butter, sugar, and the vanilla extract in a mixing bowl or blender for about 3min. Mix in the egg and beat for 3 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients and beat until you get a dark dough.

Pat the dough out on a piece of wax paper. Then cover it with another piece of wax paper on top (so it won't stick to your rolling pin) and roll it until desired thickness.

Take off the top wax paper and cut out shapes with a cookie cutter, I did horses but most people do the traditional square. Do not try to lift the shapes.

Put the entire thing with the wax paper on a cookie sheet and stick it in the freezer until it is firm (about 1.5 hours).
Once firm, very carefully transfer the shapes to a lined cookie sheet.

Set the oven to 325°F and bake for 5min.

Let it sit on the cookie sheet for about 10 min to get firm. Then remove and let cool completely before serving.
*You can also try this recipe with all brown sugar, just depends on  what you want. You can play around with it to change the taste.


Next I'm going to attempt to make Twinkies (even thought they're disgusting). Follow me on Instagram for updates. Name: daisygirlproductions
