Ingredients
  

For the Cinnamon Roll Cookies
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
For the Filling
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
For the Ice Cream Filling
  • 1 quart vanilla ice cream

Method
 

Make the Cinnamon Roll Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
Prepare the Filling and Bake
  1. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon to create the filling.
  2. Roll out the cookie dough on a floured surface into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the dough and roll it up tightly into a log.
  4. Slice the log into 1-inch pieces and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool completely.
Assemble the Ice Cream Sandwiches
  1. Once the cookies are cooled, take a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream and place it between two cookies.
  2. Press gently to create a sandwich and repeat with remaining cookies and ice cream.
  3. For best results, freeze the assembled sandwiches for about 30 minutes before serving.
