The Big Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich

This past New Years, I made a big ice cream cookie. It is a throwback from the ice cream cookies my mom used to make when I was growing up. Difference is, she used store bought, "regular sized" cookies. Mine was about a foot in diameter and used a whole half gallon of ice cream.

I used two (rolls?) of chocolate chip cookie dough and a half gallon of ice cream.




Greased the pan and spread the cookie dough on the baking pan.





Baked the cookie in the oven. I was nervous about this because I never baked cookies before
Especially one around 1 foot in diameter.




After the cookies were done, I shoveled a half gallon of ice cream between the two cookies, wrapped it in plastic wrap and placed it in the freezer. The cookie pretty much fed us for two days straight.
