Small-Batch Sugar Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Small-Batch Sugar Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper—this will help your cookies bake evenly and make cleanup a breeze.

2. Step 2

   In a mixing bowl, combine the white sugar, melted butter, egg yolks, vanilla extract, and almond extract.

3. Step 3

   Give it a good mix until everything is beautifully blended together, creating a sweet and fragrant base.

4. Step 4

   Next, gradually fold in the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and those delightful colored candy sprinkles.

5. Step 5

   Stir gently until the mixture is fully combined, and you can see those cheerful sprinkles throughout.

6. Step 6

   Now, grab a medium-sized spring-hinged scoop and portion out the dough, placing each scoop evenly spaced on your prepared baking sheet.

7. Step 7

   This will ensure they have room to spread and become perfectly chewy.

8. Step 8

   Slide the baking sheet into your preheated oven and let the cookies bake for about 10 to 12 minutes.

9. Step 9

   Keep an eye on them; they’re ready when they’ve spread out, started to crackle, and look dry on top—just the way we like them! Once they’re done, let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 2 minutes to firm up a bit before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Step 10

    Now comes the fun part—assembling your ice cream sandwiches! Take one of those delicious cookies and scoop about 1/4 cup of creamy vanilla ice cream onto its bottom.

11. Step 11

    Then, gently press a second cookie on top to create a delightful sandwich.
