So, I realize that I just made a batch of Red Velvet Chocolate Chip Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches a few weeks ago, but um, I don’t know what happened. They disappeared from my freezer just like that.

I gave a few away to friends, and the rest . . . they must have just gotten up and walked away. Whatever happened, the top shelf of my freezer was looking a little bare.

I’ve long enjoyed Talenti gelato straight from the container. Made using artisanal methods with fresh milk and extra fine pure cane sugar, real fruits and real nut pastes created in-house, Talenti will always be a quality product that will satisfy my sweet tooth.

I decided to double up on hazelnuts and chocolate chips here, by making a batch of chocolate chip cookies made with hazelnut flour, and then sandwiching them with Talenti Hazelnut Chocolate Chip gelato.

Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Gelato Sandwiches

Yield: 16 sandwiches
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 13 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1-1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1-1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup hazelnut meal/flour
  • 2 pints Talenti Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Gelato

Instructions

  1. In small bowl, stir together flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Beat butter, sugar and brown sugar in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add vanilla; then beat in eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in chocolate chips and hazelnut meal. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Drop cookie dough by 2-tablespoon-fuls onto parchment-lined baking sheets and gently press to flatten slightly. Bake 13 to 14 minutes or until cooked through. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
  3. Assemble the sandwiches: Turn 32 cookies over so that flat sides face up (you may have some extra cookies left over). Place 1/4 cup of gelato onto 16 cookies. Press remaining cookies onto gelato to form sandwiches. Wrap individually in plastic wrap and store in freezer up to 2 weeks.
