This Chipwich Ice Cream Cake Will Have You Crying Tears of Nostalgia

My favorite dessert growing up was always ice cream and/or cookies which is why the Chipwich was my favorite go-to treat anytime I took a trip to WaWa or run outside for the ice cream truck. It's been a little while since I've had my favorite childhood dessert, but then I was introduced to this Chipwich ice cream cake and it became a quick crowd pleasure amongst my roommates.

Using simple ingredients that you would use to make a normal chocolate chip cookie (and, of course, vanilla ice cream), you can recreate this sweet treat from childhood to enjoy with your friends.

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup butter room temperature
• 1 cup light brown sugar
• 1 egg plus 1 yolk
• 2 teaspoon vanilla
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 cup flour
• 1 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream
• 1 cup mini chips

• Step 1

  Add butter and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl and beat until fully combined.

  Add egg, baking soda, vanilla extract, and salt into your dough and mix until fully combined.

  

• Step 3

  Slowly beat in flour and continue mixing dough.

  

• Step 4

  Add chocolate chips to your batter and mix well.

  

• Step 5

  Spray pans with baking spray and press out dough out in separate pans. If you have a spring pan, use it!
  #SpoonTip: Don't make the dough too thick in the pan. Remember, it will rise when it cooks.

  

• Step 6

  Bake your cookies at 350°F for 15 minutes then allow your cookies to cool (it helps if you stick them in the fridge). Carefully remove your first cookie from the pan.

  

• Step 7

  Spread vanilla ice cream on top of your cookie.
  #SpoonTip: Allow the ice cream to soften slightly before spreading to make it easier.

  

• Step 8

  Add your second cookie on top and freeze for at least 2 hours.

  

• Step 9

  Remove your Chipwich cake from the freezer and serve.
