OATMEAL ICE CREAM COOKIE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Make the Cookies
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, swirling often, until it foams, then browns, 5-8 minutes. Scrape brown butter and toasty solids into a heatproof measuring glass and let cool.
• Process waffle cones, oats, flour, and salt in a food processor in long pulses until oats are broken up and cones are finely ground. Add brown sugar and pulse to combine. Whisk egg yolk, vanilla, and 2 Tbsp. water in a small bowl. With the motor running, slowly drizzle into food processor, then stream in brown butter; process until dough forms a ball around the blade.
• Portion out slightly rounded tablespoonfuls of dough to make 26 balls (each should weigh about 3/4 oz.). Roll balls between your palms to smooth and divide between 2 parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets, spacing 3" apart (the cookies will spread as they bake). Cover with another sheet of parchment paper and use the bottom of a glass to flatten each into a 2 1/2" round.
• Bake cookies, rotating sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until golden all over and browned around the edges, 12-15 minutes. Let cool on baking sheets; use a thin metal spatula to loosen cookies from parchment. Turn half of cookies over (you'll have 2 extra).
• Prepare Ice Cream
• Remove 2 pints of ice cream (same flavor) from containers (just peel away container if it's paper, or use a rubber spatula to help slide ice cream out intact if container is plastic). Cut ice cream into 2" pieces and place in a large bowl. Let sit until slightly softened, about 5 minutes, then stir with a wooden spoon or a large rubber spatula until the consistency of thick cake batter.
• Assembly
• Using a 4-oz. ice cream scoop or 1/2-cup measuring cup, and working one at a time or in small batches, scoop out large domes of ice cream onto upside-down cookies. Top each with a right-side-up cookie, then press down gently until ice cream extends to the edges. Transfer sandwiches to a rimmed baking sheet set in the freezer as you work. Repeat softening process with remaining 2 pints of ice cream and assemble remaining sandwiches.
• Freeze sandwiches until ice cream is hard, about 2 hours. Cover tray with plastic wrap and freeze at least another 8 hours to let cookies soften.
• Do Ahead
• Cookies can be baked 1 week ahead; transfer to a resealable plastic freezer bag and freeze. Sandwiches can be assembled 5 days ahead; keep frozen.

GINA'S OATMEAL COOKIE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using an electric mixer, cream butter and both sugars together in a large bowl, until light and fluffy; about 3 minutes. Crack eggs into a measuring cup and beat in 1 at a time.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and allspice. Gradually add large spoonfuls of the dry mixture into the creamed mixture. Once incorporated, fold in raisins, pecans, and oats with a rubber spatula.
• Add a small ice cream scoop of dough (about 2 inches in diameter), onto parchment paper lined cookie sheets, spacing about 1-inch apart. Pat top down slightly and bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Remove to wire rack to cool completely for 45 minutes before making sandwiches.
• Remove ice cream from the freezer and allow to soften.
• Turn 6 cookies face side up on counter. Scoop 1/2-cup of ice cream on the cookies and using an offset spatula, spread evenly to the edges. Top ice cream with a second cookie and press down to adhere. Roll ice cream edges in the chopped pecans. Freeze for 2 hours or until solid.

OAT MILK AND OATMEAL COOKIE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Puree 3/4 cup of the oats in a blender, starting on low speed and gradually increasing to high, until ground to a fine powder. Add the dates, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 2 cups cold water and puree until smooth, thick and creamy. Add the condensed milk and puree until combined. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Whip the cream and granulated sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold one-third of the whipped cream into the oat milk mixture until combined and lightened. Fold in the remaining cream until completely combined. Transfer the mixture to a 9-by-13-inch pan, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and freeze until firm but malleable, about 3 hours; you want the ice cream to hold its shape but be able to be flattened between 2 cookies without breaking them.
• Arrange an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
• Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt and soda in a small bowl until combined. Beat the brown sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the honey, vanilla and egg and beat on high until creamy, about 3 minutes more. Add the flour mixture and mix on low until combined. Add the remaining 1 3/4 cups oats and beat on low until combined. Fold in the raisins.
• Arrange twelve 1-ounce scoops (1 1/2-tablespoon portions) of cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each. Bake until the cookies have spread and are deep golden brown, 9 to 11 minutes. Cool on the sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. Let the baking sheet cool slightly, then continue with the remaining cookie dough.
• When ready to assemble. Scoop 1/3 cup of ice cream and sandwich between 2 cookies; repeat with the remaining ice cream and cookies. Transfer the sandwiches to a rimmed baking sheet, wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for at least another 8 hours before serving.

OATMEAL COOKIE SANDWICHES WITH NECTARINE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For cookies:
• Position 1 rack in top third and 1 rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Mix first 5 ingredients in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until fluffy. Add both sugars; beat until well blended. Beat in egg and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients. Using 2 tablespoons batter per cookie, drop 8 mounds onto each sheet, spacing mounds 3 inches apart. Flatten to 2-inch rounds.
• Bake cookies 10 minutes. Reverse baking sheets and bake until cookies are golden and dry to touch, about 3 minutes longer. Let cool 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to rack. Cool completely. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight.)
• For ice cream:
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Spread nectarines in single layer on sheet. Sprinkle with sugar; toss to coat. Bake nectarines 15 minutes. Stir well. Bake until fruit is tender and juices begin to thicken and caramelize, stirring every 5 minutes to prevent burning, about 20 minutes longer. Transfer fruit and juices to large bowl; mash coarsely; cool. Mix ice cream into fruit. Freeze until almost firm, about 45 minutes.
• Place 8 cookies, flat side up, on work surface. Spread 1/3 cup ice cream over each. Top each with 1 cookie, flat side down, and press gently to adhere (reserve any remaining ice cream for another use). Wrap sandwiches in foil and freeze. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Keep frozen.)

OATMEAL LACE ICE CREAM COOKIE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer), mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, and oats. In a medium bowl, mix the cream, corn syrup, melted butter, and vanilla. Add to the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Set aside for 15 minutes.
• Keeping in mind that the cookies will spread until completely flat, drop the batter in heaping teaspoons onto nonstick sheet pans, spacing them out evenly. You can fit 6 cookies on a 14 by 17-inch pan. Bake until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool 2 to 3 minutes in the pan, then use a spatula to transfer to wire racks to finish cooling. To store, layer the cookies with waxed paper and store in an airtight container.
• Ice Cream: In a cold bowl, mix the ice cream with ground cinnamon until desired taste. Return to freezer.
• To assemble sandwiches, turn the cookies flat side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Using a mini ice cream scoop, scoop 2 balls of ice cream and place side by side on the flat side of a cookie. Top with a second cookie flat side down. Serve immediately or return to freezer.
