Yield Makes 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 16.5-ounce log refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough or two 16-ounce tubs pre-portioned chocolate chip cookie dough rounds
2 pints premium banana ice cream, slightly softened
2 ripe bananas, cut into very thin slices
1 11.5-ounce package bittersweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups loose granola or English toffee bits (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. If using dough log, cut into 20 equal-size rounds. Arrange sliced dough rounds (or 20 pre-portioned rounds) on 2 baking sheets, spacing evenly. Using fingertips, press each into 2 1/2-inch round. Bake cookies until golden, about 11 minutes for sliced rounds and 15 minutes for pre-portioned dough. Transfer to rack; cool.
  • Line baking sheet with foil; place in freezer. Place 1 cookie, flat side up, on work surface. Top with 1/3 cup ice cream; spread almost to edge. Top with single layer of bananas. Sandwich with another cookie; press gently to compact. Place on baking sheet in freezer. Repeat with remaining cookies, ice cream, and bananas. Freeze 2 hours. Using knife, smooth sides of ice cream sandwiches. Freeze 1 hour.
  • Place chocolate chips and oil in small glass bowl; microwave on medium-high until chocolate is melted, stopping occasionally to stir, about 1 1/2 minutes. Let stand just until cool, about 10 minutes.
  • Place granola or toffee (if using) on plate. Dip 1 ice cream sandwich halfway into melted chocolate; lift and quickly shake excess chocolate back into bowl. If desired, roll dipped edge in granola or toffee; return to baking sheet in freezer. Repeat with remaining sandwiches, chocolate, and granola or toffee. Freeze until firm, about 2 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Wrap each sandwich in foil; keep frozen.

I'm allergic to peanuts. Can I use another type of nut in these ice cream sandwiches?

Has anyone tried making these ice cream sandwiches with a different type of cookie? I'm thinking about using chocolate chip cookies or peanut butter cookies.

I'm not sure how long these ice cream sandwiches will last in the freezer. I would recommend eating them within a week or two.

I had a hard time finding chocolate chips that were small enough for these ice cream sandwiches. I ended up chopping them up myself.

These ice cream sandwiches are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using a less sweet ice cream or adding less sugar to the cookie dough.

I'm not a huge fan of bananas, but I still really enjoyed these ice cream sandwiches. The chocolate chips and cookie dough balance out the banana flavor perfectly.

I used a different brand of ice cream in these sandwiches and they turned out just as good.

The cookies in these ice cream sandwiches are perfectly chewy and the ice cream is creamy and delicious. I love the way the chocolate chips and banana add a little extra flavor and texture.
