Ice Cream Sandwich
Here I am with my new Ice Cream Sandwich molds from Carol L. Jamison... Thanks Carol "bule" ^^ Last week she got me a cute piggy and moo-moo ice cream sandwich molds, that's turn on my desire to start baking again. So I manage to get my favorite ice cream and a ready made cookie dough in supermarket then start to bake it.
If you want to make your own cookie dough you can do that to, it's pretty easy and you can modify it yourself.
INGREDIENTS:
- 8 ounces butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups flour
- 2 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 package (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
- 4 ounce bar milk chocolate, grated
- 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans, optional
PREPARATION:
In a large mixing bowl with hand-held electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla, beating well. In a separate container, mix together flour, oats, salt, baking powder and baking soda.Place small amounts of dry mixture into blender or food processor and process until mixture turns into powder.
Mix the creamed mixture with the flour and oat mixture until just blended. Add chocolate chips, grated milk chocolate and chopped pecans, if using. Shape dough into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, and place two inches apart on non greased baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 10 to 12 minutes. Makes three to four dozen soft chocolate chip cookies. (http://southernfood.about.com/od/chocchipcookies/r/blcc92.htm)
Here's some instruction for Ice Cream Sandwich assembly:
- Choose your favorite cookie dough. When choosing a recipe, keep in mind that soft, chewy cookies work best.
- After mixing the dough, spread it evenly on a cookie sheet to approximately 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
- Bake dough according to recipe, then allow the cookies to cool for 3 to 5 minutes, or until just warm. Use the cookie sleeve to cut desired shapes. remember to cut two cookies for each sandwich. Do not let the cookies cool completely before cutting. After cut, allow cookies to cool normally on a cooling rack.
- Slide a cooled cookie to the bottom of the sleeve so that it rests in the base. Snap the cookie sleeve into its corresponding base.
- Place one scoop of ice cream into the sleeve and on top of the cookie. Place a second cookie of the same shape on top of the ice cream and press down.
- Remove the base form the mold. Use your thumbs to push complete ice cream sandwich out. Serve ice cream sandwiches immediately, or wrap them and place them in the freezer to serve later.
