I don’t know about you guys but it is SO hot here. Time to make some Chipwich iced cream sandwiches! And it’s perfect timing too because this is forth of July weekend and this would be perfect for a party or outdoor BBQ. If you have never had or heard of a Chipwich iced cream sandwiches, they are an iced cream sandwich that is vanilla iced cream, sandwiched in between 2 chocolate chip cookies.
Chipwich Iced Cream Sandwiches : The Iced Cream–Preparing the Dish
The first step is to get your iced cream into whatever you want to cut it out of. I used a 9×13 inch baking dish. but if you would like your iced cream thicker, you can use a smaller dish. Whichever you use, you want to line the dish, bottom and sides with plastic wrap.
Chipwich Iced Cream Sandwiches : The Iced Cream
For these Chipwich iced cream sandwiches, I decided to use store bought iced cream. You can do what you like, I just decided on this. Whichever you chose, just leave you iced cream out on the counter for 20 minutes to thaw a little so you can get it out of the container.
After it is taken out of the container, into the dish, you want to cover it with a piece of parchment paper or waxed paper. Now you can use whichever tool you would like to level this iced cream out but I found that the best tool is your hands. Yes it is cold, but you can feel when the iced cream is level so much better and it’s just easier to level it out with your hands. After you are happy with the iced cream, just simply put it in the freezer for 24 hours to firm up.
Now, I used a 3 inch cookie cutter to punch out these iced cream circles, You can use whichever size you would like but just keep in mind that the cookies have to be that size or a little bigger. Also keep in mine that the amount of sandwiches that you get will depend on the size that you chose. I got about 7, making the sandwiches 3 inches.
Chipwich Iced Cream Sandwiches : The Cookies
Like I said above, you want the size of the cookies to match the size of your iced cream cut outs. So to do this, if you remember I said I was using a 3 inch cookie cutter. So, what I did was I made the cookie dough balls about 2.5 inches. This made it so that when they spread they would be about 3 riches or bigger.
Chipwich Iced Cream Sandwiches : The Assembly
Now it is time to assemble. To do this, I first put 1 cookie down, flat side up. Then you want to cut out your iced cream circle. Make sure you pull back the parchment paper before though. Just make sure you push that cookie cutter down all the way and give it a twist to make sure it is cut out fully.
Now, your iced cream should stick to the cookie cutter so you just want to transfer that to your waiting top down cookie. Push around the sides of the iced cream to make it release from the cutter. Now just top it with another cookie. Depending on how melty your iced cream is by this point, you can put the sprinkles or chocolate chips on right after. Mine was very melty, so I froze the sandwiches again for about 5 hours before rolling the sides of the sandwiches in red, white and blue sprinkles. If you don’t want to use sprinkles , you can also roll them in mini chocolate chips.
