Chewy chocolate chip cookies sandwiched with your favorite ice cream for the perfect summer treat! —Maria Pagiotas

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 cups bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 quart your favorite ice cream
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy. Add the sugar and light brown sugar and mix on medium speed until fluffy and light in color. Mix in eggs one at a time and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl after each addition. Mix in vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together flours, baking soda and salt. On low speed, slowly add flour mixture into butter mixture until combined.
  4. Add the chocolate chips and mix by hand just until evenly distributed.
  5. Scoop dough, about 3 tablespoons each, and place on prepared baking sheets leaving 2 inches between each cookie. Bake 16-18 minutes, until edges are golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 2 minutes on the cookie sheet. Transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely.
  6. Place a scoop of ice cream on a cookie and top with a second cookie. Gently push down and repeat with the rest of the cookies. Freeze sandwiches at least 1 hour before serving.

I've made these cookies numerous times since Hilton/DoubleTree released the recipe, and each batch has been delicious. I've even left out the lemon juice a couple of times. I make these a little smaller and get more cookies out of each batch. Then I give them to friends and family who have nostalgic memories of enjoying these while staying at the DoubleTree. Great recipe!
