Ingredients
  

Ice Cream Base

  • 2 cups heavy cream can also substitute full fat coconut milk
  • 2 tbspn brown sugar
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14oz can is what I used
  • sprinkle salt
  • 1 tspn vanilla extract

Cookie Dough Bits

  • 1 stick butter can also use browned butter. Make sure your butter is soft.
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tspn vanilla extract
  • cup flour heat treated in microwave for 1 minute
  • 2-3 tbsp whole milk
  • ¼ tspn salt
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

Cookie Dough Bits

  • Place softened butter in medium bowl.
  • Add sugars and mix with a spoon until creamy.
  • Add remaining ingredients except chocolate chips and mix well. If it seems too dry and crumby, add an extra tablespoon of whole milk.
  • Stir in mini chocolate chips.
  • With the tip of a teaspoon rollout small bits of cookie dough. You want them roughly ½ inch in diameter. Variety of sizes is what I like.
  • Place on parchment covered baking tray and place in freezer until ready to use.
  • Can be transferred to sealed plastic bag or container and stored for up to 3 months.

Ice Cream

  • Beat cold heavy whipping cream on high with whisk attachment until soft peaks form.
  • Add in vanilla, sprinkle of salt, and brown sugar and mix until combined on medium speed.
  • Slowly drizzle in sweetened condensed milk while the mixer is running until all of the milk is added. It should be light and fluffy.
  • Mix in gently with a spatula the cookie dough bits. You can save a handful to drop on top of the ice cream for decoration.
  • Scoop into a 9x13 parchment lined pan if using this ice cream for ice cream cookie sandwiches. If not, scoop into a 9x5 freezer friendly container with a lid.
  • Allow to freeze 6 hours or overnight for best results.
  • Enjoy!
