Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Can substitute with almond flour for a gluten-free option.
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened Can substitute with coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips Optional.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt, mixing well.
  3. In another bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing until fully combined.
  5. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips if desired.
  6. Chill the cookie dough for about 30 minutes.
Baking
  1. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each scoop.
  2. Bake the cookies for about 10-12 minutes or until they’re set but still soft in the center.
  3. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Assembly
  1. Once the cookies are completely cool, sandwich a scoop of strawberry ice cream between two cookies and press gently.
  2. Freeze the sandwiches for about an hour before serving.

Notes

Wrap individual sandwiches in plastic wrap or foil and store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two weeks.
