For the No Churn Oreo Ice Cream

• Line a regular cookie sheet with saran wrap. Set aside.
• Chop the Oreos into small bites, set aside.
• In a small/medium mixing bowl, stir together ther sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl (or your stand mixer) pour in the heavy cream and mix using a hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
• Take 1 C of the whipped cream and stir it into the sweetened condensed milk.
• Then take that sweetened condensed milk mixture, and fold it into the remaining whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the cream.
• Once it is all combined, stir in the chopped Oreos.
• Pour onto the prepared cookie sheet, and spread into an even thin layer, about 1/2 inch thick.
• Freeze for at least 4 hours, up to overnight.

For the Brownie Cookies

• Preheat the oven to 350 and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. You will need to bake all 24 cookies at the same time so that the texture is correct.
• In a double boiler, or a glass bowl on top of a saucepan with 2-3 inches of water, melt the butter and chocolate. Once completely melted, set aside to cool slightly.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, mix the eggs and sugars for 5 minutes. This allows air to incorporate into the batter and is what gets you the shiny crackly tops.
• While that’s mixing, stir together the flour, cocoa powder, espresso if using, and salt. 
• After 5 minutes, turn the mixer to low and slowly pour in the melted chocolate. Mix until combined. 
• Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. 
• Use a standdard 1 TBSP cookie scoop to portion the cookies onto the prepared cookie sheets. Bake 12 per sheet.
• Bake at 350 for 12 minutes. Then, allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Assembly

• Once the ice cream has completely frozen, remove it from the freezer and cut out 12 circles using a 2 1/4 inch biscuit cutter. Or use a  round cookie cutter, but just try to match up the size to the size of the cookies. Sandwich the ice cream between two cookies and enjoy! You can place the assembled cookies back onto the cookie sheet and place in the freezer until ready to serve.
