This potato chip cookie recipe is the perfect vehicle to make seasonally appropriate ice cream sandwiches. From the food blog Foodie Crush, the potato chip cookie ice cream sandwiches are a delicious sweet and slightly salty treat to enjoy this summer.
Thick cut kettle chips are added to a mother's oatmeal chocolate chip recipe, giving the baked goods "a crispy, salty crunch," a delicious sea salt and chocolate flavor combination and added texture to the homemade ice cream sandwiches. Blogger Heidi suggests making the potato chip cookies as uniform as possible size-wise, making them thinner, freezing them before assembling the sandwiches and using ice cream pints to get the right sized layers. You can also decorate your cookies with a chocolate dip and sprinkles.
