Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches

The cookie turned our really well. Since the cake mix was only 15.25 ounces or 342 grams, I added 2/3 cup quick oatmeal. I also used a round cookie cutter and pressed the dough into the cutter to make the cookies more uniform.

These were AWESOME! I read all the reviews first, so took advantage of some of other member's comments. I got an ice cream maker this week and wanted to test it out. I used a chocolate ice cream recipe from this website submitted by Wendy (thank you Wendy). I got my ice cream maker busy and then put together the cake mix. I followed the recipe to a T. When it came time to bake, I used a regular baking sheet lined with foil (another member said it was hard to remove hers from Silpat) and lightly greased. I wanted my cookies fairly thin 3/8 inch thick and smaller, about 3 inches diameter when done and cooled, so I used a regular cookie scoop, filled it halfway and then onto the foil. I then patted it into a little round circle with just a couple of pats. I made them fairly thin, about ¼ inch. Then baked for 6 minutes. They came out perfect! Cooled completely and by that time my ice cream was ready. When you make it yourself, it comes out of the machine soft serve. I just scooped and then put my sandwiches together. Following others advice to work quickly, I put together about 4 or 5 at a time and then whisked them onto a foiled cookie sheet waiting in the freezer. Then on to the next batch. This method yielded about 24 completed sandwiches. It was so fun and absolutely delicious and of course endless combinations of cake mix and ice cream. I can hardly wait to experiment! I took some to work today and needless to say I was voted most popular today.

This is so good. I made mine in a 13 X 9 pan and baked it for 18 min, cut them into squares and added a 1/2 cup of toffee chips.
