1) Moowiches
Large Chocolate Chip Cookies (best if they are soft and chewy)
1/2 gallon of vanilla ice cream
Allow ice cream to slightly soften so it can be scooped easily. Take one cookie and put a scoop of ice cream onto the cookie. Place another cookie on top. Smoosh it down! Wrap each Moowich in plastic wrap. Freeze until firm. These are cool a treat anytime!
