Ingredients

For the cookies:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter , at room temperature (226 grams)
  • 1 cup packed light or dark brown sugar (213 grams)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour (170 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 cups quick cooking oats (265 grams)

For the ice cream:

  • 1 cup whole milk (237 ml)
  • 2 cups marshmallows (150 grams, about 20 large)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cup heavy cream (470 ml)

Instructions

To make the cookies:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugars together until pale and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined.
  • In a separate bowl combine the flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon. Add to the mixer and mix until just combined. Add the oats.
  • Shape into 1-2 tablespoon sized balls and place on prepared sheet pan. Bake until edges are golden but middle is still soft, about 10 minutes. Cool completely.

To make the ice cream:

  • Pour the milk into a medium saucepan and place over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and stir frequently as they melt into the milk. Once smooth, remove from heat and add vanilla. Pour mixture into a medium bowl and add heavy cream. Chill completely.
  • Once chilled, the gelatin in the marshmallows may have solidified somewhat. Simply whisk until smooth and liquid once more.
  • Freeze in an ice cream machine using manufacturer's instructions. Scoop into a bowl or container and place in the freezer for several hours to firm up.

To assemble the ice cream sandwiches:

  • Let the ice cream come to room temperature for about 10-15 minutes so that it's easier to work with. Place a scoop of ice cream on one cookie and place another on top. Press down gently to sandwich to two together.
  • Serve immediately or place sandwiches in the freezer for later.

Notes

Note: Substitute rolled oats by pulsing them a few times in a food processor to break them up.
