  • Place the 1st cookie down on your serving board. Take the frozen ice cream out of the freezer and pull it out using the plastic wrap. Flip it onto the first cookie layer and remove the plastic wrap. Place the last layer of cookie on top of the ice cream.
  • If desired, press extra mini chocolate chips into the sides of the ice cream. Serve immediately. Or place covered in the freezer. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
