Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ cup butter, softened
- 1 large egg
- Sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Create the Strawberry Ice Cream Mix: In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar and vanilla extract while mixing, then gently fold in chopped strawberries.
- Chill Your Mixture: Transfer to an airtight container and freeze for 4-6 hours or until firm enough to scoop.
- Bake Your Cookies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Beat softened butter with sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and mix well before incorporating flour and baking soda.
- Scoop and Shape Cookies: Drop dough onto lined baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden around the edges but soft in the center.
- Assemble Your Sandwiches: Once cookies are cool, scoop strawberry ice cream onto one cookie half, then press another cookie on top. Repeat with remaining cookies.
- Freeze Again: Place assembled sandwiches back in the freezer for about an hour to set before serving.
