…cookies and ice cream and candy, oh my!
This is the ultimate three-in-one dessert and it is customizable to your tastes! With Betty Crocker’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix, I was able to whip up these bad boys in less than 30 minutes! Fudgy chocolate chip cookies, cool ice cream and even more chocolate, what’s not to love? All you need is a few ingredients for the cookies and a tub of your favorite ice cream (I used Moose Tracks for this batch!) The best part about this frozen treat is that it can be made far in advance and will last a long time! I think I will try Dark Chocolate Cookies with Peppermint Ice Cream…or maybe Oatmeal Cookies with Cinnamon Ice Cream next time? Ohhhh the possibilities :)
1 package Betty Crocker® Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Mix
1 stick butter, softened
1 large egg
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (because you can never have enough chocolate chips!)

Assorted candies for decoration (Reese’s, M&M’s, Mini Chocolate Chips, York Peppermint Patties…etc.)

Assembly…*
(6) Lay half of the cookies bottoms up on a cookie sheet or paper towel

Place the other half of the cookies on top
