Chocolate Cookies
Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar plus more for sprinkling
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk plus more for washing tops of cookies
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 1/4 cups all purpose flour sifted
3/4 cup Dutch unsweetened cocoa
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Directions:
Directions:
Let all ingredients come to room temperature before you begin. Cream butter, sugar, and salt. Cream only enough to combine ingredients (this results in a chewier cookie). Add egg, milk, and vanilla and mix until blended. In a separate bowl, sift flour, cocoa, and baking powder. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until they’re combined.

Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare your baking sheet by oiling it, lining it with parchment, or using a silicone mat. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and roll dough to approximately 1/8 inch thick. Cut out cookies into desired shape (4-inch circles or squares work well) and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, wash cookie tops with milk and sprinkle with sugar. Bake 8 to 10 minutes. Do not overbake – cookies harden as they cool.
 

Ice Cream Filling
Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1/2 gallon your favorite ice cream slightly softened
Directions:
Directions:
As cookies cool, spread ½ gallon of softened ice cream on jelly roll pan lined with plastic wrap, to a thickness of approximately ½ to ¾ inch. Return ice cream to freezer to harden, about 20 minutes. When hard, remove and cut into circles or squares, slightly smaller than your cooling cookies. Place the ice cream between two cookies; work quickly until all cookies are used. Place all filled cookies on the jelly roll pan and return to freezer to harden. As soon as the ice cream has hardened, wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap and return to the freezer. If no one knows you have these in your freezer, they’ll store well for up to 3 months. If the word is out, they’ll be gone long before then!
