Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour (Gluten-free flour can be used as a substitute)
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil (Melted coconut oil is a suitable substitute)
  • 1/2 cup Agave Syrup (Honey can replace it but may alter the flavor slightly)
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 cup Mini Chocolate Chips (Standard chocolate chips can be used but may change the texture)
  • 1 quart Ice Cream of Choice (Use your favorite flavor)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, agave syrup, and sugars together until well combined and smooth.
  2. Step 2: Gradually add the flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt, stirring until a cohesive dough forms.
  3. Step 3: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  4. Step 4: Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Step 5: Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  6. Step 6: Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before assembling.
  7. Step 7: Spread your chosen ice cream between two cookies, pressing gently to make a sandwich. Wrap each sandwich tightly for freezing if not serving immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra softness, slightly underbake the cookies by a minute or two.
  • Try different ice cream flavors like mint chocolate chip, salted caramel, or vanilla bean for variety.
  • Use gluten-free flour to make this recipe suitable for gluten-intolerant guests.
  • Chill the cookie dough before baking if you want thicker, chewier cookies.

Storage

Store the assembled ice cream sandwiches wrapped in plastic wrap or airtight containers in the freezer for up to one week. To serve, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before enjoying.

FAQs

Can I use regular chocolate chips instead of mini chocolate chips?

Yes, you can use regular chocolate chips, but the texture may be slightly different since mini chips distribute more evenly throughout the dough.

How do I prevent the ice cream from melting when assembling the sandwiches?

Keep the ice cream as cold as possible by scooping it quickly and assembling the sandwiches in a cool environment. You can also chill the cookies briefly before adding ice cream to help prevent melting.
