Ingredients
  • 2 pints ice cream of your choice, left at room temperature for 10 minutes until easy scoopable
  • 20 sandwich cookies of your choice
  • 3 cups chocolate chips of your choice
  • ΒΌ cup neutral oil
Optional Ingredients

Directions
  1. Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Dip a small ice cream scoop into a glass of warm water.
  3. Use the scoop to portion a mound of ice cream onto each cookie, re-dipping the scoop in warm water as needed.
  4. Use gloved hands to gently press each mound of ice cream into a smooth dome.
  5. Place ice cream bites onto the prepared baking sheet and freeze until very firm, at least 2 hours (or overnight).
  6. Melt chocolate chips and oil in a bowl set over a double boiler or in the microwave until smooth.
  7. Dip one ice cream bite at a time into the melted chocolate, so the ice cream dome is completely covered.
  8. Repeat with remaining ice cream bites and return to the baking sheet.
  9. Drizzle a few ice cream bites at a time with remaining melted chocolate, if desired, and add any additional toppings before the chocolate sets.
  10. Freeze until ready to serve.
