Peanut Butter Jelly Ice Cream Sandwiches

These Peanut Butter Jelly Ice Cream Sandwiches combine the classic flavors of peanut butter and jelly with creamy vanilla ice cream, all sandwiched between two delicious cookies.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Vanilla ice cream
• Strawberry or grape jelly
• Your favorite cookies store-bought or homemade

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350F 175C

In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and sugar until smooth

Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined

Stir in the baking soda and salt until the dough is formed

Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper

Using a fork, gently press down on each cookie to create a criss-cross pattern

Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool completely

Once the cookies are cool, take a scoop of vanilla ice cream and place it on the flat side of one cookie

Spread a layer of strawberry or grape jelly on the flat side of another cookie

Press the two cookies together to create an ice cream sandwich

Repeat the process with the remaining cookies, ice cream, and jelly

Serve immediately, or wrap the sandwiches in plastic wrap and freeze for later enjoyment
