PIN NOW FOR A COOKIE DOUGH EMERGENCY!
I have had a long, sweet relationship with cookie dough. As long as I can remember, I would sneak a spoonful cookie dough when my mom made cookies.
Confession time; I still eat cookie dough (I’m a daredevil, I know), I don’t even sneak it! I still smack hands that try and dig in, but all in good fun now. I know it’s not in vogue to eat raw cookie dough, which is why I decided to make some “legal” raw cookie dough, no danger or risk taking involved!
In fact, I love cookie dough so much, I’ve made it into a frosting — serve it individually as little frosting “shooters” or top your favorite cupcake or sandwich between your favorite cookie, like these.

How to Make Edible Cookie Dough for Ice Cream Sandwiches
To get started, make up a batch of my chocolate chip edible cookie dough.
Press dough into a quarter sheet pan lined with parchment paper or a rectangular tart pan and freeze for 30 minutes. Once firm, remove carefully from the pan using the parchment paper and cut in half.
Spread softened ice cream on top of one of the halves of cookie dough, carefully place the other half on top, pressing gently.
Freeze another 30 minutes, yielding soft sandwiches or 60-90 minutes for firmer sandwiches. To slice, remove from freezer and using a knife dipped in hot water, slice into squares.
Enjoy these cookie dough ice cream sandwiches immediately or wrap individually and store in freezer.
Simple, straight forward, delicious! Our family loved these treats, cool and creamy and and a small square was so very satisfying!
