Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches

My 3rd grader was assigned to bake something to practice her math skills (my personal favorite way to learn fractions), so I was very excited to create a new recipe to accommodate the assignment. Let me introduce you to our brand new dessert recipe: Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches!! It is quite the mouthful to say, but the tastiest mouthful to eat!

It’s Friday- I’m not sure that even means anything when you’re in quarantine…? Regardless, we have had a busy week of online school and projects. I think this will be the perfect way to celebrate a week of hard work!! Enjoy!!

DIRECTIONS:

Cream together 1/2 cup sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter, butter, shortening and egg. Mix in flour, baking soda and baking powder. Refrigerate 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 375 F degrees. Mold dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place on a cookie sheet. Make a criss cross pattern on top with a fork. Bake until edges are barely a light brown, about 8-10 minutes.

Let cool for 20-30 minutes. Get out your ice cream. Make sure it is a little bit soft. Scoop ice cream onto the bottom of one of the cookies. Using flat palms on both of your hands, press another cookie on top to create an ice cream sandwich.

Roll ice cream sides in the mini chocolate chips. Eat immediately.
