A grain-free chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich is such a fun way to end a meal! 

Grain-Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich

Thanks to Cook’s Illustrated, I discovered that when making cookies for ice cream sandwiches, additional water is needed to help the cookie maintain a chewiness when it’s frozen. I would have thought that adding water would make it more crunchy, but they were right! So, make sure to add those extra tablespoons of water to the dough.

I always try and use as little sweetener in my dessert recipes as possible. But, when food is  food is frozen it tastes less sweet, so this is why there is 1/2 cup of sugar (vs. using less sugar).

Grain-Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich

You can use any kind of ice cream you’d like in-between the cookies. A homemade vanilla or chocolate are good choices!

Pin Recipe
  • Yield: Makes 12 sandwiches

Ingredients

  • 10 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup organic brown sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon Celtic Sea Salt
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour plus 1 tablespoon
  • 1/3 cup tapioca flour plus 1 tablespoon
  • 1/3 cup arrowroot flour plus 2 tablespoons
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I used Enjoy Life)
  • 3 pints ice cream
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325ºF and adjust the rack to the middle position. Place the butter in a small saucepan over low heat and cook until butter is browned, about 10 minutes. Pour the browned butter in a medium mixing bowl and stir in brown sugar and salt. Let cool for 10 minutes.
  2. Combine the flours, and baking soda in a small mixing bowl. Whisk the egg, water and vanilla into the cooled butter mixture. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the flour mixture until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  3. Using a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop 12 mounds of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake cookies for about 9-11 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
  4. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 45 minutes, and then put into the freezer.
  5. To assemble: Place 5 of the cookies upside down and top with a scoop of ice cream. Top with a second cookie and gently press down until the ice cream spreads to the edges of the cookies. Dip one edge into the chocolate chips (optional). Place the sandwiches in the freezer and repeat with remaining cookies and ice cream. Serve frozen.

    I’m totally going to make these soon! My daughter and I are doing AIP, so I’ll make a couple ingredient switches, but my first AIP cookies were a fail so I’m excited to try these. Question: the recipe says it makes 10 sandwiches, but step 3 suggests 12 cookies, and step 5 suggests 5 sandwiches (10 cookies) - can you please clarify so I know if I need to double the recipe for my family of 7? Thank you!

        These were a hit! With my AIP adjustments they tasted a bit salty. Making them again tonight with half the salt. They’re fabulous as ice cream sandwiches though!

      If I don't have tapioca flour would it be ok to use more of my coconut or arrowroot flour instead. These look delicious and I clearly can't wait to make them😊

        I haven't tested it, but you might be able to swap out the tapioca for additional arrowroot.
