Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, malted milk powder, cornstarch, baking soda and salt. Mix well, then set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the sugars and softened butter. Mix on medium speed until it forms a grainy paste. Add the eggs, vanilla and corn syrup. Beat at medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add the flour mixture and the chocolate chips. Mix just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Scoop the dough into 36 dough balls. Press mini chocolate chips into the top of each cookie dough ball.
- Chill the dough for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the dough balls onto a cookie sheet lined with a non-stick baking mat at least 2 inches apart. Bake for 12 minutes.
- Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the pan, then transfer the cookies to a surface lined with parchment paper to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are cooled, scoop ice cream onto a cookie, then top it with another cookie to make a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
- Wrap the ice cream sandwiches in wax paper and freeze until serving.
Notes
How to Easily Fill Ice Cream Sandwiches
There are two options for making ice cream sandwiches:
- Freeze the cookies before filling. That way when you press the ice cream between two cookies, the cookies will not bread.
- You can also soften the ice cream, spread it in a 9×13 pan and freeze. Then use a cookie cutter the same size as the cookies to cut circles of ice cream to easily sandwich between the cookies.
