These malted milk cookies n’cream ice cream sandwiches are so fun and very doable! I made the ice cream and the cookies the day before, then put them together the next day. After that (of course had to sample all along) I wrapped them in plastic wrap and stored them in the freezer.

This is Teigen’s recipe for Half Baked Harvest. I thought they would be really time consuming but they really aren’t. The ice cream is simple to make and the cook dough is so easy to roll out and cut. Teigen used triangular cookies and ice cream the same size. I didn’t trust myself to get them so even, so I decided on a round cutter which worked perfectly. These are similar to the cutters I used. https://amzn.to/3lisSCq. I use these all of the time for so many different things.

The ice cream has heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, malted milk powder, crushed chocolate wafer cookies, (I used Oreos) just to name a few delicious ingredients! And, it’s no churn.

The cookies are a great dough to work with and you use unsweetened cocoa powder that makes it easier than having to melt chocolate. I really like to use a good cocoa powder in baking. This is the brand I usedhttps://amzn.to/34Knnqx

Ghirardelli Cocoa, Unsweetened, 8 oz

Want another ice cream recipe that also uses cocoa powder? this Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe is so good. https://the2spoons.com/homemade-ben-and-jerrys-chocolate-ice-cream/.

Print Recipe
Course Dessert
Cuisine American
Servings 6 large sandwiches, or 12 small

Ingredients
  

For the Ice Cream

  • 2 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup malted milk powder
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups crushed chocolate wafer cookies or Oreo cookies
  • 1/2 tsp flaky salt

Cookies

  • 2 sticks salted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs at room temperature
  • 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
    Using an electric mixer, whip the cream and malted milk powder in a large bowl until soft peaks form, 3-4 minutes. Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and salt and whip until combined and fluffy. Fold in the crushed cookie crumbs. Spread the ice cream out in an even layer in the prepared pan, freeze 2-3 hours, until firm.
    Meanwhile, make the cookies. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Add the egg and mix until evenly combined. Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Beat until combined and the dough forms a ball. If your dough feels too wet to roll out, add the additional 2 tablespoons flour.
    Divide the dough in half and flatten each half into a disk. Roll out the dough out on a flour piece of parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut 24 (4×2 inch) rectangles. Carefully transfer the cookies to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roll out the leftover scraps, and repeat with the remaining disk of dough. You can also use a round cookie cutter for the cookies and the ice cream if you prefer.
    Bake the cookies for 9-10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
    Lift the ice cream slab out of the pan using the parchment paper. Working quickly, cut into 12 rectangles. Sandwich each ice cream rectangle between 2 cookies, pressing the cookies into the ice cream gently to adhere.
    Freeze the sandwiches 2 hours, until firm, or up to three months. Let the ice cream sandwiches sit at room temperature 5 minutes, then enjoy!

Ben and Jerry's Chocolate ice creamJump to Recipe

This ben and jerry’s chocolate ice cream recipe is so good!! I love to make homemade ice cream. This is actually the first time I have ever made chocolate. This is fudgy and velvety, luscious best describes this ice cream.

I actually have a Ben and Jerry’s ice cream recipe book which I got this recipe from. I have tried many of the recipes and they are great! Here’s a link for the recipe book: https://amzn.to/3iszWuG. It’s a really inexpensive book but has some great ice cream recipes.

Homemade ice cream obviously for those my age brings back memories of the hand crank machine. Ice, ice cream salt….all required. I remember my dad making ice cream and when it got almost ready, dad would put a towel over the ice cream maker and we’d sit on it to help in turning I guess. Wow! wonderful memories.

These days I use an attachment for my Kitchenaid. I’ve had it for a long time but they just keep on. My 91 year old mother actually has a Kitchenaid that was my Grandmother’s and it still works great. I have a Kitchenaid Professional. All of the mixer’s come with the ability to add attachments. That’s where the ice cream making with my Kitchenaid comes in because I have the attachment. If you will look, you’ll see this mixer go on sale and try to grab one when you can. Here’s a link for a great price and a great mixer: http://awesome homemade ben and jerry’s chocolate ice cream

and, this is the ice cream maker that I use: https://amzn.to/3dSq2Px.

The chocolate ice cream calls for unsweetened chocolate and cocoa. I try and have a good quality cocoa on hand. Here’s one of my favorites: https://amzn.to/3eYkFQm.
