Giant Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• Place the peanuts in a small sauté pan and toast over medium-low heat until golden. Sprinkle with sea salt, toss and set aside to cool. Place the peanuts in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and pulse until finely chopped. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Place 6 cookies, flat side up, on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper. Soften the sorbet for about 15 seconds in the microwave, until it's pliable but not defrosted. Place a large scoop of the sorbet on top of each cookie and place a second cookie on top of the sorbet, flat side down. Lightly press down on the top cookie until the sorbet reaches the edge. Roll the edge of the cookies in the chopped peanuts and place in the freezer for about one hour before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease two 8-inch baking dishes with the nonstick cooking spray and line them with parchment paper, allowing 1-inch wings to hang over the edges; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, salt and baking powder. In a medium bowl, whisk together the butter, vanilla, eggs and 3/4 cup peanut butter. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula to combine. Divide the mixture between the prepared baking dishes and spread out evenly with a spatula or your hands. Bake until the centers are just set, begin checking for doneness at 23 minutes. Cool in the pans completely.
• While the blondies cool, allow the ice cream to soften at room temperature to a spreadable consistency. Using an offset spatula, spread the ice cream evenly over one pan of the blondies while it's still in the pan. Drizzle on the remaining 1/2 cup peanut butter and use the spatula to swirl it into the ice cream. Place the other blondie on top of the ice cream and freeze until the ice cream is firm, about 4 hours.
• Using the parchment wings, lift the whole thing out of the pan and onto a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut to trim the edges (if desired, this isn't necessary) and cut it into 1 1/2- to 2-inch squares. Wrap individually in plastic wrap or place in an airtight container and store in the freezer.

Steps:

• Place a rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Generously coat a 18x13" rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray . Melt 1 cup (2 sticks) butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk together cocoa powder, kosher salt, baking powder, and 1½ cups sugar in a medium bowl. Drizzle in butter; reserve saucepan. Whisk until butter is incorporated, then add vanilla and 2 eggs and whisk until batter is glossy and smooth. Add 1¼ cup flour and whisk until no dry streaks remain.
• Melt remaining ¼ cup (½ stick) butter in reserved saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat, add peanut butter, and whisk until smooth. Whisk in remaining 1 egg and ½ cup sugar, then add remaining ½ cup flour and whisk until smooth.
• Pour chocolate batter into prepared pan and, using a rubber spatula or your fingers, smooth into an even layer, spreading all the way to the corners and sides; the batter will be quite thin. Dollop peanut butter batter over chocolate batter and press into an even layer. Sprinkle sea salt on top.
• Bake cookies until top looks dry and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 14-17 minutes (cookies will seem too soft, but they'll firm up as they cool). Let cookies cool in baking sheet, then use a sharp knife to cut into 32 pieces (8 across on long sides and 4 down on short sides). Carefully remove pieces from pan with a thin spatula.
• Meanwhile, line a rimmed 13x9" rimmed baking sheet or baking dish with plastic wrap, layering sheets both lengthwise and crosswise and leaving a few inches of overhang on all sides. Transfer softened ice cream to prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Fold overhang up and over the top and freeze ice cream until firm, at least 1 hour.
• When you're ready to assemble sandwiches, use plastic overhang to transfer frozen ice cream block to a cutting board. Working quickly, cut into 16 pieces (4 across on long sides and 4 down on short sides-mirroring half of the cookie slicing method above). Sandwich each ice cream rectangle between 2 cookies, arranging cookies top side out and place on a baking sheet. Freeze until firm all the way through, then transfer sandwiches to an airtight container or individually wrap in foil. Keep frozen until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Slice the baguette in half lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Then cut into 3-inch-long pieces.
• Spread the insides of the baguette pieces with a thin layer of peanut butter on one cut side and a thin layer of chocolate spread on the other cut side. Spoon some ice cream in the center and top with banana slices if using; sprinkle with a few flakes of sea salt before closing into sandwiches.

Steps:

• Pour the hot fudge into a medium microwave safe bowl and microwave 2 minutes on high. Do not allow to boil.
• Stir peanut butter into hot fudge until smooth.
• Allow to cool to room temperature.
• Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch dish with a layer of ice cream sandwiches, using 9 1/2 sandwiches.
• Spread half the whipped topping over the sandwiches.
• Using half the chocolate mixture, put 9 mounds on top and swirl with knife to distribute.
• Top with half the peanuts.
• Repeat layers.
• Freeze until firm, 1 hour.
• Cut into squares to serve.

Steps:

• Let dough stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften. Press into two ungreased 9-in. springform pans; sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs.
• Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until set. Cool completely.
• In a bowl, whisk the milk, cream and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth.
• Add pudding and ice cream; beat until smooth.
• Spread over one cookie crust. Remove sides of second pan; place crust, crumb side down, over filling.
• Cover and freeze for 4 hours or until firm.
• Remove from the freezer 15 minutes before serving.
• Place hazelnut spread in a small microwave-safe bowl; cover and microwave at 50% power for 1-2 minutes or until smooth, stirring twice.
• Remove sides of pan; cut dessert into slices.
