Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches

The summer temperatures here in Texas can be brutal.  There's nothing like a chilly treat to beat the heat.  This fun to make twist on the ice cream sandwich earns bonus points as a great way to get the kids in the kitchen with you.  I used the classic Nestle Toll House cookie recipe, but these would be great with any of your favorite cookies, even the refrigerated dough kind.  Mix and match your ice cream flavors as well.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches
