Eggless Ice Cream Sandwiches: A Monsoon Treat
Ingredients:
For the Cookies:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce (egg substitute)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk (plant-based or regular)
For the Ice Cream:
- 1 quart vegan vanilla ice cream (or your favorite flavor)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cookies:
- Preheat your oven to 350Ā°F (175Ā°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the unsweetened applesauce and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, mixing well.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Add the milk and mix until the dough is smooth.
- Bake the Cookies:
- Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Flatten the dough balls slightly with the back of a spoon or your hand.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Assemble the Ice Cream Sandwiches:
- Let the vegan ice cream soften at room temperature for a few minutes until it is easy to scoop.
- Place a scoop of ice cream on the flat side of one cookie.
- Top with another cookie, flat side down, pressing gently to spread the ice cream evenly to the edges.
- Repeat with the remaining cookies and ice cream.
- Freeze the Sandwiches:
- Wrap each ice cream sandwich individually in plastic wrap.
- Place the wrapped sandwiches in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Remove the ice cream sandwiches from the freezer a few minutes before serving to let them soften slightly.
- Enjoy your refreshing and delicious eggless ice cream sandwiches!
