    List of Ingredients




    Festive Ice Cream Sandwiches


    2 cups sifted flour
    1 1/2 tsp. Baking powder
    1/2 tsp. Salt
    1/2 cup butter
    1 tsp. Vanilla extract
    3/4 cup granulated sugar
    2 eggs, well beaten
    2 pints Ben & Jerry’s ice cream of your choice.


    Recipe



    Spread the two pints of softened ice cream in a jellyroll pan. Place in freezer to harden for at least 2 hours. Prepare sugar cookies: Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly grease cookie sheets and set aside. Sift together dry ingredients and set aside. Cream together butter and vanilla until softened. Gradually add sugar, creaming until fluffy after each addition. Add beaten eggs in third, beating thoroughly after each addition. Add dry ingredients gradually to the creamed mixture, mixing well after each addition. Chill at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Roll dough to 1/4” thickness on a lightly-floured surface using a floured rolling pin. Lightly flour a cookie cutter and cut dough into your favorite shapes. Place on prepared cookie sheets and bake 10-12 minutes, until bottoms are golden, but not browned. Cool cookies on a wire rack.

    To assemble sandwiches:

    When ice cream slab is firm, cut with the same cookie cutter used for the cookies. Work quickly and assemble the sandwiches. Wrap individually in plastic wrap and place in the freezer.

    Hint: Cookies will soften over time. If you want them to stay crisp in the freezer, coat the insides of the cookies with melted white or dark chocolate and cool to harden the coating. Assemble as above
