Homemade Icecream Cookie Sandwiches

We saw this on "Guy's Big Bite" on the Food Network this morning...
You can do this with whatever cookie and ice cream combination you choose...
For today, I made Jeff's favorite, chocolate chip cookie. I cheated and bought the dough roll from Wal-Mart (the BIG roll). And bought a PINT each of Bluebell Dutch Chocolate and Homemade Vanilla ice cream.

Roll dough into 1 1/2 in balls. I cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the cookie sheet for easier cookie removal (worked awesome!) I fit 6 on my cookie sheet allowing plenty of room for them to spread. Bake until centers are barely gooey (like normal). Allow to cool. If you cut through the carton (as you can see in the picture) into thirds, the size of ice cream will be just the right size. Granted, this is harder than Guy made it look! Make a sandwich with two cookies and the ice cream (bottom side of cookie against ice cream for both top AND bottom cookies). You can cover (or place in sandwich bags or wrap with saran wrap) and put back in the freezer to re-harden. I think I used too soft of ice cream because it didn't get solidify completely. (some of the chocolate ice cream ones have spread out into the bag... AFTER I put them in the freezer)

BUT, they were still awesomely wonderful!
