Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups cotton candy-flavored ice cream (or any flavor of your choice)
- Additional cotton candy for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix until well blended and smooth.
- Using a tablespoon, scoop out the dough and roll it into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each ball as they will spread while baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly undercooked, but they will firm up as they cool. Let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are completely cool, take one cookie and scoop a generous amount of cotton candy ice cream onto the flat side. Top with another cookie, flat side down, to form a sandwich. Gently press together.
- If desired, garnish with a small tuft of cotton candy on top of each sandwich for a fun presentation. Serve immediately or freeze for later enjoyment.
