Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare Cookie Dough

In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

2
Add Egg and Vanilla

Beat in egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

3
Combine Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

4
Make Cookie Dough

Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

5
Chill Dough

Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

6
Preheat Oven

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

7
Form Cookies

Roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness on a floured surface. Cut into 16 equal-sized rounds using a 3-inch cookie cutter.

8
Bake Cookies

Place cookies on prepared baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes until set.

9
Cool Cookies

Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

10
Prepare Ice Cream

Remove ice cream from freezer and let soften for about 10 minutes.

11
Assemble Sandwiches

Place a generous scoop (about 1/2 cup) of softened ice cream on the flat side of 8 cookies. Top with remaining cookies, flat side down, and gently press to spread ice cream to edges.

12
Freeze Sandwiches

Place assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 2 hours until firm.

13
Chop Pistachios

Shell pistachios if necessary and roughly chop.

14
Prepare Chocolate Coating

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine dark chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.

15
Dip Sandwiches

Working quickly with one sandwich at a time, dip half of each frozen sandwich into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off.

16
Add Pistachios

Immediately sprinkle chopped pistachios onto the chocolate-covered portion before it sets.

17
Set Chocolate

Place dipped sandwiches back on the baking sheet and return to freezer for 15 minutes to set the chocolate.

18
Wrap for Storage

Once chocolate is set, wrap each sandwich individually in plastic wrap or parchment paper.

Freeze Until Serving

Store wrapped sandwiches in the freezer until ready to serve.
