- 20 small chocolate chip cookies
- 1 large candy cane, crushed
Peppermint Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich Directions:

Working fast, repeat process until you’ve prepared 10 cookie and ice cream sandwiches, then place in freezer for a minimum of 1 hour, or until ice cream has stiffened.
- Meanwhile, place crushed candy cane pieces in a shallow bowl.
- Once cookie sandwiches have chilled, roll their sides in crushed candy cane, coating each cookie’s ice cream. Repeat until all cookies are coated and place back in freezer until ready to serve.
