Snickerdoodle Ice Cream Sandwiches
Total time: 35 minutes plus cooling and freezing
Makes 12 sandwiches
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. cream of tartar
½ tsp. baking soda
¼ tsp. kosher salt
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ cup plus 2 Tbsp. firmly packed light brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
¾ tsp. ground cinnamon
3 cups ice cream (any flavor)
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
2. In medium bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and kosher salt. In large bowl with electric mixer, beat butter, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar about 3 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated.
3. In small bowl, stir cinnamon and remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Form dough into 24 (1 ½ inch) balls, roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture, and place on prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until set and edges are slightly golden. Cool 5 minutes before transferring wire racks to cool completely.

Total time: 30 minutes plus freezing
Makes 16 Servings
2 pints chocolate-peanut butter ice cream
2 pints dulce de leche ice cream
8 fun-size peanut-chocolate candy bars (such as Snickers)
1 bottle (7.25 oz.) chocolate-and-peanut butter shell ice cream topping
1. Coat 12-cup bowl with nonstick cooking spray; line with plastic wrap, extending wrap over sides by at least width of bowl.
2. Cut carton off chocolate-peanut butter ice cream. Cut ice cream in ¾ –inch-thick rounds. Place slides in bowl to cover bottom and side to 1 inch from top, cutting slices to fit. With spatula, fill in gaps. Freeze 20 minutes or until firm. Meanwhile, refrigerate dulce de leche ice cream to soften slightly.
3. Cut candy bars into ¼ -inch-thick slices (total 1 cup). Use potato masher or large spoon to stir dulce de leche ice cream to soften evenly; stir in candy. Spoon ice cream into bowl; spread level. Sprinkle crushed cookie crumbs over top; press into ice cream. Fold plastic wrap over ice cream to cover. Freeze bombe overnight or up to 2 weeks.
4. Up to 1 day ahead; cut cardboard or paper plate to fit on crumbs. Invert bombe and cardboard together onto wire rack over rimmed baking sheet. Remove bowl and plastic wrap. Quickly smooth wrinkles. If ice cream starts to melt, refreeze before coating. Pour most of shell coating over bombe; use spatula to spread evenly. Transfer bombe to plate and drizzle with remaining shell coating. Freeze until serving.
