Chocolate Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches

A homemade Chocolate Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich is a heavenly way to cool off on a hot summer day!
 I don’t know who invented ice cream sandwiches, but they were a genius!! It is so awesome to be able to eat a cold and creamy treat without even having to dirty a bowl. Because who wants to be washing dishes? Not this mom.

Of course we’ve eaten our share of store bought ice cream sandwiches. I’m not knocking them, they are fabulous. But homemade ice cream sandwiches take it up a notch.

And I love that I can control the ingredients and the flavor of ice cream. We’ve tried vanilla and cookies and cream, both were fabulous. Next time I’m going to go chocolate overload and try them with rocky road. Yum!

I love how pretty the cookies look with the sugar crystals and chocolate chips on top. And they are nice and chocolatey. So good!

They are delicious served right away, but I actually like them best after they have been stored in the freezer for a few days. The cookies soften up a bit. These will definitely be making an appearance often at our house!

I originally shared the recipe for these ice cream sandwiches at I ♥ Naptime a couple weeks ago.
