These easy Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches are the perfect summer treat! Choose your favorite edible cookie dough flavor and pair it with your favorite ice cream… the possibilities are endless!
Is anyone else SO excited for the Fourth of July?! We are headed somewhere fun for the week with my family and I. Can’t. Wait!! Be sure to check out my Berry Trifle for an easy and patriotic dessert as well as my Pinterest for more inspiration.
These Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches would also be an amazing 4th of July dessert! As some of you may know, I am in LOVE with the edible cookie dough from The Dough Dough. Okay, it’s safe to call it an obsession. I have tried almost every flavor and truly can’t choose a favorite. I also can’t stop incorporating them into my recipes!
These ice cream sandwiches are absolutely the easiest recipe on my blog because you don’t have to make ANY OF IT (I hesitate to even call it a recipe). You can buy edible cookie dough and the ice cream, and simply throw it together. Y’all know I am all about homemade everything, but sometimes you just need a really good recipe in your back pocket that requires as little effort as possible.
I used the Cookies and Cream dough and Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla here, but another thing I LOVE about this is you can truly make it your own! Not a fan of Cookie and Cream? Grab your favorite cookie dough flavor and pair it with your favorite ice cream. The possibilities are endless!!!
Here are some dough and ice cream combos I think would be AMAZING…
- Peanut Buddy Dough with Blue Bell Milk Chocolate Ice Cream
- Original Chocolate Chip Dough with Blue Bell Coffee Ice Cream
- Naked Original Dough with Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream
The Dough Dough is shipping nationwide now, but if you are just dying to make homemade edible cookie dough, this Cookies & Cream one looks pretty awesome! Or if you’ve got a good homemade ice cream recipe, more power to ya!
I hope you have a fun and safe 4th of July and make these Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches! I promise you won’t regret it!

These easy Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches are the perfect summer treat! Choose your favorite edible cookie dough flavor and pair it with your favorite ice cream… the possibilities are endless!
Ingredients
- 4 8- ounce containers of The Dough Dough Cookies & Cream Dough or any recipe for edible cookie dough
- 1 pint or ¼ gallon of Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla ice cream or any ice cream
Instructions
-
Set ice cream out for 20 to 30 minutes to soften.
-
Line an 8x8 (or larger) pan (I used a Pyrex glass dish) with parchment paper so that the ends overhang the sides.
-
Gently press half of the cookie dough into the pan and smooth until even (I got the general shape of the pan with the dough, then removed to smooth it out with rolling pin on the counter, then placed back into pan to reshape and fit). This will be the top layer of dough.
-
Remove the parchment paper and the first layer of dough and repeat step 3 with the remaining cookie dough on a second sheet of parchment paper. This will be the bottom layer of dough.
-
Add the softened ice cream on top of the bottom layer of dough and gently spread with a knife or offset spatula in an even layer.
-
Using the parchment paper, gently flip the second layer of dough onto the layer of ice cream.
-
Tightly cover the pan with plastic wrap or foil and place in the freezer for at least 4 hours or until firm.
-
Remove from freezer and cut into squares or bars. Wrap each one in plastic wrap and store in freezer until you are ready to eat. Remove from freezer for about 5 minutes before eating.
