If you are needing a fairly simple, fun, and yummy treat for a summer get together, ice cream cookie sandwich pops are a great option. Ice cream and cookies are the perfect combination – plus this treat is very versatile; you can use any kind of cookies, ice cream, and sprinkles you’d like.
Using pre-made, refrigerated cookie dough makes these cookie sandwiches easy to make, but you can always use your own recipe if you’d prefer.
Below I’ll show you how to make ice cream cookie sandwich pops, but if you don’t want to make pops, just leave out the stick and you’ll have mini ice cream cookie sandwiches – super cute. And if you don’t want mini ones, just make or buy regular sized cookies and use the same technique as described below.
Mini Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich Pops
Ingredients/Supplies:
- mini chocolate chip refrigerated cookie dough
- 1.5 quarts of ice cream (flavor of your choice)
- sprinkles, mini chocolate chips, etc.
- wax paper
- round cookie cutters
- cookie or cake pop sticks
Directions:
1. Let ice cream soften at room temperature for 10-15 minutes. Line a 13×9 cookie sheet (with sides) with wax paper. Once ice cream is softened, scoop it onto the cookie sheet and spread it out evenly. Place the cookie sheet in the freezer and let freeze for at least 2 hours.
2. Bake cookies according to package directions. Cool completely.
3. Pair up cookies with ones of similar size and shape and set aside on another wax paper lined cookie sheet.
4. Place sprinkles in a bowl.
5. Remove the cookie sheet of ice cream from the freezer and using a round cookie cutter that is the same size (or a tad bit larger) as the cookies, cut out circles from the sheet of ice cream.
6. Using the pairs of cookies you set aside, place one ice cream circle on the bottom side of one of the cookies from the pair and then place the other cookie on top (with the bottom of the cookie against the ice cream). Dip the sides of the cookie sandwiches into the bowl of sprinkles until all of the ice cream is coated with sprinkles. Place assembled cookie back on the cookie sheet with wax paper. Repeat until you have cut out as many ice cream circles as you can. Work quickly so the ice cream doesn’t melt too much, and/or have someone to help you.
7. Place the assembled cookies back into the freezer for two hours before serving.
8. Before serving, insert a cake pop stick into the cookie sandwich. Serve immediately upon removing from freezer. For restaurant franchise options, people can learn more here and get the best deals.
