Ingredients
Scale
Cinnamon Cookies:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
Filling:
2–3 cups vanilla ice cream (slightly softened)
2–3 tablespoons honey (for drizzling)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until a soft dough forms.
Roll dough into balls, flatten slightly, and place on the baking sheet.
Bake for 8–10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Cool completely.
Scoop vanilla ice cream onto the flat side of one cookie, drizzle lightly with honey, and top with another cookie to form a sandwich.
Press gently, then freeze sandwiches for 1 hour to firm up before serving.
Notes
For stronger cinnamon flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon extra cinnamon.
Use cinnamon ice cream for a double-cinnamon version.
Wrap each sandwich individually for easy freezer storage.
