Ingredients

  • 1 stick of butter, softened
  • 1/2 c. coconut or brown sugar
  • 1/4 c. sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 egg + 1 egg yolk
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 1/4 c. gluten free flour blend (I used 1/2 c. of oat flour)
  • 1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 45 oz. vanilla ice cream
  • Optional: sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Then, beat in the vanilla, egg, egg yolk, baking soda, and salt. Next, beat in the flour. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Press dough into a 9x9 greased baking dish. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out mostly clean. Allow to cool. (I also scooped about 3-4 individual cookies onto a lined baking sheet and baked for 8-11 minutes. These were crumbled and sprinkled over the ice cream layer.)
  • Allow the ice cream to soften at room temperature for 25-30 minutes. Then, scoop into a large mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Pour over the cooled cookie base and spread evenly with a knife, small spoon, or offset spatula. Next, top with crumbled cookies and sprinkles. Quickly cover and freeze.
