  • 9 mins
  • 11 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 pints pistachio ice cream
  • 3 (7.2-ounce) packages white chocolate macadamia nut cookies
  • 1 1/2 cups (9 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon shortening

Preparation

Step 1

Using clean scissors, cut each container of ice cream down the side; remove ice cream from containers. Using a sharp knife, quickly slice each pint of ice cream, crosswise, into 5 (1/4-inch-thick) slices. Place 1 slice of ice cream on each of 10 cookies. Top ice cream with 10 additional cookies. Place sandwiches on a rimmed baking sheet lined with wax paper. Place pan in freezer.

Melt chocolate and shortening in a small saucepan over low heat. Dip half of each ice cream sandwich in melted chocolate. Place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with wax paper; freeze at least 1 hour. Serve immediately, or cover and keep frozen.

Notes:
Once chocolate has hardened, wrap ice cream sandwiches in plastic wrap, and store in the freezer for up to 1 month.
