Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1 cup (220g) packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups (340g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 pint (473ml) good-quality vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
  • 1 cup (240g) marshmallow fluff
  • Optional: pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder
  • Mini marshmallows or marshmallow fluff for toasting

Instructions

  1. Make the Cookie Dough: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy—about 3-4 minutes with an electric mixer.
  2. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  4. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Use a spatula to gently fold in the chocolate chips evenly.
  5. Chill Dough: Cover the dough and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  6. Bake Cookies: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop dough into 2-tablespoon-sized balls and place on parchment-lined sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers still soft. Let cool completely.
  7. Prepare Ice Cream Filling: Soften vanilla ice cream slightly. Fold marshmallow fluff into the ice cream gently.
  8. Assemble Sandwiches: Spread a generous scoop of the marshmallow-ice cream mixture onto the flat side of one cookie. Top with another cookie and press gently.
  9. Toast the Marshmallow: Sprinkle mini marshmallows on top and toast with a kitchen torch or under the broiler for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or spread marshmallow fluff on the outside and torch it.
  10. Freeze to Set: Wrap sandwiches individually in plastic wrap and freeze for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

Chill cookie dough before baking to prevent spreading. Fold marshmallow fluff gently into ice cream to keep texture light. Toast marshmallows carefully to avoid burning. Freeze sandwiches for at least 1 hour to set filling. Assemble quickly to prevent ice cream melting.
