Ingredients
Cookie Part
1 Stick of melted butter
1 egg
2 cups of crushed graham crackers
1 cup of sugar
Ice Cream part
2 large eggs
3/4 cup of sugar
2 cups of heavy or whipping cream
1 cup of milk
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
Preparation
Cookie Part: Beat the butter and egg together, then mix in graham cracker and sugar. Roll out mixture on a cookie sheet to between 1/8"-1/4" thick. Using a silicone baking mat works best.
Bake at 350 degrees for 18 minutes or until golden brown.
Let cool for only 2 minutes. It must be warm during the cutting. Using a glass or cookie cutter, cut out circles. Dipping glass is sugar helps keep it from sticking. Let cookies cool completely.
Ice Cream: Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more. Pour in the cream, milk, and vanilla and whisk to blend.
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturerʼs instructions.
Sandwiching Tips: The best way that I have found to make the sandwiches is to let the ice cream freeze in the freezer a bit more. I then make a log shape with the ice cream using cling wrap as a casing, just smaller in diameter than the cookies. I let that freeze completely, then I cut the log into slices 3/4 thick. I then make the Trits putting some Hersheyʼs chocolate syrup on one side of the ice cream. This is a really messy process, but so worth it. Pura Vida!
