  5. Place dough by large spoonfuls onto parchment covered cookie sheet and bake for 9-11 minutes. Allow cookies to completely cool. When cookies have cooled, warm up caramel sauce. Turn cookies over and drizzle with salted caramel. Place cookies (on the cookie sheet) into freezer for an hour.

Assembling your sandwiches!

  1. Ten minutes before filling cookies, take ice cream out of the freezer and allow to soften a bit. Top one cookie with ice cream. Place another cookie on top and gently press. You want the cookies separated by at least an inch of ice cream. Wrap individual sandwiches in wax paper and place in gallon size zip lock bags. You should be able to get 6-8 cookies into a gallon size zip lock.Place in freezer immediately. Serve after ice cream sets up again!
