PB and J Ice Cream Sammies
(adapted from Gale Gand's Just a Bite)
1 stick Butter-cut into pieces
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 cup packed Light Brown Sugar
1 Egg
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
1 1/2 cups Flour
3/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup smooth Peanut Butter
1 pint Vanilla Ice Cream
1/2 cup Strawberry Jelly
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cream your butter until smooth
Add sugars and mix well
Add egg and vanilla
Add flour in three different additions, mixing after each one,
add peanut butter and mix well
Roll your dough into 1" balls.
Crisscross each cookie with the back of a fork.
Bake for 5-7 minutes. Let cool.
While cooling, let the ice cream soften a little,
and then add the jelly, folding it in gently.
Make sandwiches by spreading the ice cream mix
on top of the flat side of a cookie, and then top it with
another cookie. Freeze until ready to enjoy!
Ooh, these look so good! Peanut butter and ice cream are two of my favorite things! Especially together.
ReplyDeleteYou and I went the same direction on this challenge, Teri! I love the ice cream idea...YUM!
ReplyDeleteI love ice cream sandwiches, how clever!
ReplyDeleteIce cream sandwiches are an all time favorite in my house. I love this clever variation.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are divine - seeing that ice cream ooze out the side makes my stomach and tastebuds angry I am not eating it right now ;)

I like the new dark look of your blog! I love this idea of a pb cookie filled with vanilla ice cream and jelly. Why hadn't I thought of that?!
ReplyDeleteYes please!! I'll take a dozen! There's nothing better than peanut butter cookies unless of course, you fill them with ice cream. Genius!
