Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Cookies

Today I did a great thing.


Today I combined two of the best things to ever exist on this earth into one messy, magnificent bite. Today I made ice cream sandwiches. Out of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Be still my heart.

First step, the oatmeal cookies. And I use my ultra secret oatmeal cookie recipe... right off the top of the oatmeal container. Thanks, Quaker Oats:

Vanishing Oatmeal Raisin CHOCOLATE CHIP Cookies
(slightly changed from Quaker's original)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup crisco
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1-1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
3 cups Quaker Oats, Old Fashioned
1-2 cups chocolate chips
Directions: Mix together butter and sugars. Add the rest of the ingredients. Drop by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet and bake for 8 minutes at 350 degrees.

Half chocolate chip, half raisin, for the wusses out there.
These are perfect, even pre-ice cream.


Assembling the ice cream sandwiches is easy. Simply pick your favorite cookies and slap some ice cream in between.


Either eat them immediately, which is very tempting/rewarding/messy, or stick them in the freezer to harden for later. Enjoy!
