Shortbread & Spice Ice Cream Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
- 1 cup packed brown sugar (200 grams)
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour (293 grams)
- 1 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1/4 cup sugar for rolling (50 grams)
- 3 ½ cups Chapman’s Holiday Moments Shortbread ice cream
Preparation Instructions
1
With an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
2
Add the egg and molasses and beat again until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
3
Add the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon and cloves and beat on low-medium until dough comes together. If dough is too soft to roll into balls, refrigerate for 1 hour.
4
Preheat oven to 350°F and roll cookie dough into 1.5" balls using about 2 tablespoons of dough. Roll cookie dough balls in granulated sugar and place on parchment-lined baking sheets about 2" apart, pressing down firmly so that they are flattened (1/8-1/4" thick). You should get 14-16 cookies.
5
Bake for 6-7 minutes, until set at the outer edges and slightly puffed. Remove from oven and let cool completely. Optional: freeze cookies for 1 hour to make assembly easier.
6
Place roughly ½ cup of ice cream between two cookies and press together slightly to form each ice cream sandwich.
7
Freeze again until firm (2-3 hours) before serving. Enjoy!
