These easy 2-ingredient ice cream sandwiches are a fun, nostalgic frozen dessert made with just cookies and ice cream. Using a simple log-and-slice method, they come together quickly and are perfect for summer treats, parties, or make-ahead desserts.

Ingredients

16 chocolate sandwich cookies (plus 23 extra in case of breakage)

1 pint premium ice cream (any flavor)

Instructions

  1. Lay out a long piece of parchment paper on a flat surface.
  2. Remove the ice cream pint from the freezer, loosen it from the container, and slide the ice cream out in one solid piece.
  3. Using a sharp knife, cut the ice cream in half lengthwise.
  4. Place the halves flat-side down, press them together, and wrap tightly in parchment paper to form a smooth log.
  5. Return the wrapped ice cream to the freezer and chill for 1 hour until firm.
  6. While the ice cream chills, twist apart the chocolate sandwich cookies and scrape off the cream filling.
  7. Arrange the cookie halves, scraped-side up, on a freezer-safe tray.
  8. Unwrap the ice cream log and slice it into even rounds about ½-inch thick.
  9. Place one slice of ice cream onto a cookie half and top with another cookie half to form a sandwich.
  10. Freeze the assembled sandwiches for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

Work quickly when slicing and assembling to prevent melting.

Premium ice cream slices more cleanly than lower-fat varieties.

Store sandwiches individually wrapped in parchment paper.

Let sandwiches sit at room temperature for 1–2 minutes before eating for easier biting.

Edges can be rolled in sprinkles, nuts, or coconut for extra texture.
