Why this Recipe Works

Soft & Chewy Cookies Stay Tender When Frozen – The oats and peanut butter help the cookies retain moisture, preventing them from becoming hard or brittle in the freezer.

M&M’s and Chocolate Chips Add Bursts of Flavor – Every bite delivers a mix of chocolate, candy coated crunch, and cookie goodness, making the sandwiches more exciting than traditional cookie ice cream sandwiches.

Freezing the Assembled Sandwiches Enhances the Texture – The ice cream firms up while the cookies soften slightly, creating an easy-to-bite frozen treat.

The Recipe is Customizable – Different ice cream flavors, mix-ins, and edge coating can be used without sacrificing the cookie’s structure or flavor.

How to Make Monster Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches

Make The Best Bakery Style Monster Cookies . Set aside 12.

Lay 6 cookies open face (bottom side up). Scoop 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream on top of each one.

Top with remaining 6 cookies and gently press together .

Match Up Cookies First to Check Uniform Size – Matching the cookies creates neater sandwiches.

Cool Cookies Completely – Warm cookies will melt the ice cream and create a messy sandwich, so make sure they are completely cool before assembling.

Use Firm, but Scoopable Ice Cream – It should be easy to spread without melting.

Freeze Before Serving – After assembling, freeze the sandwiches for at least 1-2hours. This helps them hold their shape and makes them easier to handle.

Vanilla Ice Cream Swap – Instead of vanilla ice cream, you could use peanut butter, chocolate, or chocolate peanut butter. Any flavor of your choice works!

Coat the Edges – If you’d like, you could roll the ice cream edges with extra M&M’s!
