MEASURE 1/4 C. dough; shape into ball. Repeat with remaining dough. Place balls 4 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Flatten balls into 3-inch circles.
BAKE 10 to 12 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned. Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet; transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
REMOVE ice cream from freezer to soften slightly. Measure 1/2 C. ice cream; spread onto bottom of one cookie. Cover with flat side of second cookie. Wrap sandwich in plastic wrap. Place in freezer. Repeat with remaining cookies and ice cream.
Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches should be eaten within two days. After two days, cookies will absorb moisture and become soggy. If longer storage is needed, make and freeze cookies, but assemble ice cream sandwiches within two days of serving.
