Oatmeal Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in oats and chocolate., Shape dough into twenty 1-1/4-in. balls. Place 2-1/2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets; flatten slightly with bottom of a glass dipped in sugar, smoothing edges if necessary. Bake until golden brown, 10-13 minutes. Transfer from pans to wire racks to cool completely., To assemble, place about 1/4 cup ice cream on bottom of a cookie; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon toffee bits. Top with a second cookie, pressing gently to flatten ice cream. Place on a baking sheet; freeze overnight or until firm. Repeat with remaining cookies and ice cream. For longer storage, wrap frozen sandwiches individually and return to freezer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using an electric mixer, cream butter and both sugars together in a large bowl, until light and fluffy; about 3 minutes. Crack eggs into a measuring cup and beat in 1 at a time.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and allspice. Gradually add large spoonfuls of the dry mixture into the creamed mixture. Once incorporated, fold in raisins, pecans, and oats with a rubber spatula.
• Add a small ice cream scoop of dough (about 2 inches in diameter), onto parchment paper lined cookie sheets, spacing about 1-inch apart. Pat top down slightly and bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Remove to wire rack to cool completely for 45 minutes before making sandwiches.
• Remove ice cream from the freezer and allow to soften.
• Turn 6 cookies face side up on counter. Scoop 1/2-cup of ice cream on the cookies and using an offset spatula, spread evenly to the edges. Top ice cream with a second cookie and press down to adhere. Roll ice cream edges in the chopped pecans. Freeze for 2 hours or until solid.

Steps:

• Make the Cookies
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, swirling often, until it foams, then browns, 5-8 minutes. Scrape brown butter and toasty solids into a heatproof measuring glass and let cool.
• Process waffle cones, oats, flour, and salt in a food processor in long pulses until oats are broken up and cones are finely ground. Add brown sugar and pulse to combine. Whisk egg yolk, vanilla, and 2 Tbsp. water in a small bowl. With the motor running, slowly drizzle into food processor, then stream in brown butter; process until dough forms a ball around the blade.
• Portion out slightly rounded tablespoonfuls of dough to make 26 balls (each should weigh about 3/4 oz.). Roll balls between your palms to smooth and divide between 2 parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets, spacing 3" apart (the cookies will spread as they bake). Cover with another sheet of parchment paper and use the bottom of a glass to flatten each into a 2 1/2" round.
• Bake cookies, rotating sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until golden all over and browned around the edges, 12-15 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets; use a thin metal spatula to loosen cookies from parchment. Turn half of cookies over (you'll have 2 extra).
• Prepare Ice Cream
• Remove 2 pints of ice cream (same flavor) from containers (just peel away container if it's paper, or use a rubber spatula to help slide ice cream out intact if container is plastic). Cut ice cream into 2" pieces and place in a large bowl. Let sit until slightly softened, about 5 minutes, then stir with a wooden spoon or a large rubber spatula until the consistency of thick cake batter.
• Assembly
• Using a 4-oz. ice cream scoop or 1/2-cup measuring cup, and working one at a time or in small batches, scoop out large domes of ice cream onto upside-down cookies. Top each with a right-side-up cookie, then press down gently until ice cream extends to the edges. Transfer sandwiches to a rimmed baking sheet set in the freezer as you work. Repeat softening process with remaining 2 pints of ice cream and assemble remaining sandwiches.
• Freeze sandwiches until ice cream is hard, about 2 hours. Cover tray with plastic wrap and freeze at least another 8 hours to let cookies soften.
• Do Ahead
• Cookies can be baked 1 week ahead; transfer to a resealable plastic freezer bag and freeze. Sandwiches can be assembled 5 days ahead; keep frozen.

Steps:

• For cookies:
• Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Mix first 5 ingredients in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until fluffy. Add both sugars; beat until well blended. Beat in egg and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients. Using 2 tablespoons batter per cookie, drop 8 mounds onto each sheet, spacing mounds 3 inches apart. Flatten to 2-inch rounds.
• Bake cookies 10 minutes. Reverse baking sheets and bake until cookies are golden and dry to touch, about 3 minutes longer. Let cool 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to rack. Cool completely. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight.)
• For ice cream:
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Spread nectarines in single layer on sheet. Sprinkle with sugar; toss to coat. Bake nectarines 15 minutes. Stir well. Bake until fruit is tender and juices begin to thicken and caramelize, stirring every 5 minutes to prevent burning, about 20 minutes longer. Transfer fruit and juices to large bowl; mash coarsely; cool. Mix ice cream into fruit. Freeze until almost firm, about 45 minutes.
• Place 8 cookies, flat side up, on work surface. Spread 1/3 cup ice cream over each. Top each with 1 cookie, flat side down, and press gently to adhere (reserve any remaining ice cream for another use). Wrap sandwiches in foil and freeze. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Keep frozen.)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Cream together shortening and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in eggs and vanilla. In another bowl, whisk the next 5 ingredients; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Stir in oats. , Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 in. apart onto lightly greased baking sheets. Bake until golden brown, 10-12 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool., For filling, cream shortening, confectioners' sugar and marshmallow creme. Add enough milk to achieve spreading consistency. Spread filling on the bottoms of half of the cookies; cover with remaining cookies.

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat and set aside.
• Place another baking sheet, plate or airtight container in the freezer.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the almond butter, brown sugar, coconut oil, granulated sugar vanilla, cinnamon and salt in until creamy, about 30 seconds. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Add the oats and baking soda and mix to combine. Add the popcorn, chocolate-covered raisins, nonpareils and candy-coated chocolates. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in until evenly incorporated.
• Scoop 1/4-cup-sized balls of dough (about the size of a plum) onto the baking sheets 2 inches apart (see Cook's Note). Dot each cookie with a few pieces of popcorn and candy. Sprinkle each with a pinch of flaky salt, if desired. Bake until lightly browned and just set in the center, begin checking for doneness at 14 minutes. These cookies have a tendency to spread into uneven blob shapes in the oven, so I like to shape them back into circles as soon as they come out of the oven using an inverted bowl on top of the cookies to gently curve the edges back into alignment. Let cool on the pan completely (well, enjoy one or two while they're still warm but then let the rest cool on the pan).
• While the cookies cool, remove the ice cream from the freezer to slightly soften. Scoop 1/3 cup of ice cream onto the flat, bottom side of half the cookies. Top with another cookie and gently press down to flatten. Place the ice cream sandwich in the freezer on the cold baking sheet, plate or container. Repeat with the remaining cookies and ice cream.
• Keep frozen until ready to enjoy!

Steps:

• In a bowl, cream shortening and sugars. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Combine dry ingredients; gradually add to the creamed mixture. Stir in the chips and pecans.
• Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls 3 inches apart onto lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.
• To make ice cream sandwiches, place a scoop of ice cream on the bottom of half of the cookies. Top with remaining cookies; wrap in plastic wrap. Place on a baking sheet; freeze. Yield: about 2 dozen sandwiches.

Steps:

• Cut your cookie in half and scoop the ice cream on top of one half. Top it with the other half of your cookie and roll the exposed ice cream in chocolate chips.
