Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup of unsalted butter and 1 cup of brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3–5 minutes. Add in 1 egg and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, blending well. Gradually mix in 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder until a soft dough forms.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F while preparing your cookie sheets. Using a tablespoon, scoop portions of the dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Flatten each scoop slightly and bake for 10–15 minutes until edges are golden and centers look slightly soft. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
  3. Once cooled, scoop generous amounts of pumpkin spice ice cream between two cookies, pressing gently to create a thick sandwich. Sprinkle chopped nuts or cookie crumbles around edges for extra texture.
  4. Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet and cover them with plastic wrap. Freeze for at least 30 minutes to firm up the ice cream.
  5. After freezing, serve by slicing in half for easier handling if desired. Enjoy immediately and savor the creamy, spiced goodness!

Notes

Ensure cookie dough is not too soft; chilling it before baking helps maintain shape. Use premium pumpkin spice ice cream for best flavor.
