Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream Cone

1. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
2. Add the Vanilla: Stir in the vanilla extract.
3. Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda. Gradually add this mixture to the butter and sugar mixture, mixing until fully combined.
4. Add the Chocolate Chips: Stir in the mini chocolate chips. If the dough feels too dry, add a tablespoon or two of milk to help it come together.
5. Chill the Dough: Cover the cookie dough and refrigerate it for about 30 minutes. Once chilled, roll the dough into small bite-sized balls or break it into small pieces for mixing into the ice cream later.

2. Make the Ice Cream Base:

1. Whisk the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until the sugar is dissolved.
2. Chill: If you have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into it and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can pour the mixture into a shallow dish, cover it, and freeze. Stir every 30 minutes until it reaches a soft, creamy texture.
3. Add Chocolate Chips: Once the ice cream is nearly done, fold in the mini chocolate chips.

3. Assemble the Ice Cream Cones:

1. Prepare the Cones: Fill each cone with a layer of cookie dough balls or pieces, gently pressing them into the bottom of the cone.
2. Add Ice Cream: Scoop the freshly made chocolate chip ice cream into each cone, packing it down gently with each scoop. You can alternate between ice cream and cookie dough layers for added texture.
3. Top with More Cookie Dough: After filling the cone with ice cream, top it with a few more pieces of cookie dough and chocolate chips for that extra cookie dough crunch.

4. Serve:

• Freeze or Serve Immediately: If you want the ice cream to set a bit, place the cones in the freezer for about 30 minutes. But, if you can’t wait, serve them immediately for a perfectly creamy treat!
• Optional: Drizzle with hot fudge sauce, or sprinkle with more mini chocolate chips or cookie crumbs for added indulgence.

Serving Tips:

• Keep it cold: If you’re making these ahead of time, store the assembled cones upright in the freezer until you’re ready to serve.
• Add a drizzle: A warm drizzle of chocolate syrup or caramel sauce over the top makes this treat even more over-the-top!
