Ingredients
- 10 pieces Chocolate cookies
- 2 cups Vanilla ice cream
- 2 cups Chocolate ice cream
- 4 tablespoons Salted caramel sauce
- 0.25 cups Peanuts (crushed)
- 1 cup Dark chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Place 5 chocolate cookies flat on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 2
Soften the vanilla and chocolate ice cream slightly for easy scooping, but ensure they are not melting.
Step 3
Scoop 2 tablespoons of vanilla ice cream onto each cookie and spread gently with a spatula to create an even layer.
Step 4
Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of salted caramel sauce over the vanilla ice cream layer.
Step 5
Top the caramel layer with 2 tablespoons of chocolate ice cream and spread gently with a spatula.
Step 6
Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of crushed peanuts on top of the chocolate ice cream layer for added crunch.
Step 7
Place another chocolate cookie on top of each stack, gently pressing it down to create the sandwich shape.
Step 8
Transfer the sandwiches to the freezer and allow them to firm up for 1-2 hours.
Step 9
To prepare the chocolate shell, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until smooth.
Step 10
Remove the ice cream sandwiches from the freezer and quickly dip each one halfway into the melted chocolate shell mixture.
Step 11
Place the dipped sandwiches back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and return to the freezer for 15 minutes to set the chocolate.
Step 12
Serve immediately once set or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week.
