Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. Cream together the butter, peanut butter, and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until integrated.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the creamed mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are golden and centers remain soft.
  7. Allow cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Assemble sandwiches by placing a scoop of ice cream between two cookies.
  9. Chill assembled sandwiches in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm up ice cream.
  10. Serve on a platter, optionally topped with chocolate sauce or sprinkles.
