 Semi-Homemade Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream

Here's a simple and delicious semi-homemade recipe for chocolate chip cookie ice cream:

Ingredients:

• 1 quart (4 cups) vanilla ice cream (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 cup chocolate chip cookies (store-bought or homemade), roughly chopped
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
• Optional: chocolate syrup for drizzling

Instructions:

1. Soften the Ice Cream: Take the vanilla ice cream out of the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes until it softens slightly but is not melted.

2. Prepare the Cookies: Roughly chop the chocolate chip cookies into bite-sized pieces.

3. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened vanilla ice cream, chopped chocolate chip cookies, and mini chocolate chips. Fold the ingredients together gently until they are evenly distributed throughout the ice cream.

4. Refreeze the Ice Cream: Transfer the mixture back into the ice cream container or another freezer-safe container. Smooth the top and cover with plastic wrap or a lid.

5. Freeze Until Firm: Place the container back in the freezer for at least 2-4 hours, or until the ice cream is firm enough to scoop.

6. Serve: Scoop the chocolate chip cookie ice cream into bowls or cones. Optionally, drizzle with chocolate syrup for extra indulgence.

Tips:

• For extra flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of sea salt to the ice cream mixture before refreezing.
• You can customize this recipe by using different types of cookies, such as double chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, or even sandwich cookies.
