Ingredients
  

For the cookies

  • ½ cup softened butter 1 stick
  • ½ cup softened margarine 1 stick
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup roughly crushed pretzels
  • 2 cups chocolate chips of choice semi-sweet or dark chocolate

For the inside of the ice cream sandwiches

  • Vanilla ice cream
  • Caramel sauce

Instructions
 

For the cookies

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Mix together the butter, margarine, white and brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until completely mixed.
  • Gradually beat in the flour, salt, and baking soda.
  • Lastly, mix in the pretzels and chocolate chips just until evenly distributed.
  • Bake for 8-10 min (If you want to add the whole pretzel on top, press onto the cookie about 2 min before they are done baking).

To assemble the ice cream sandwiches

  • Let the cookies cool when done, and place in the freezer for at least 10 minutes to harden before assembling.
  • Remove ice cream from freezer for at least 5 minutes to let soften.
  • Once cookies have cooled, spread caramel sauce on the bottoms of two cookies. Then, place a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of the caramel of one cookie. Place the other cookie (caramel side down) on top of the ice cream and press down until ice cream is about to reach the edge of the cookies. Repeat for each ice cream sandwich.
  • Immediately wrap ice cream sandwiches in seran wrap or parchment paper. Place in freezer to let ice cream sandwiches fully freeze (they'll be very messy if you eat them right away). Then, remove and enjoy!
