Ingredients :

1 stick margarine
2 eggs1 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Half-gallon carton vanilla ice cream

Method :

1. Place the cream the margarine and brown sugar in medium-sized bowl (using margarine instead of butter and brown sugar instead of granulated sugar produces a chewy, soft cookie). Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then the vanilla extract.

2. Use another bowl to stir the cocoa, flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to the margarine mixture. Beat until well combined. Gather the dough into a ball and chill for at least 1 hour.

3. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4-inch thick. Use a ruler and a sharp knife to cut out rectangular pieces.

4. Transfer the cookie rectangles with a spatula to an ungreased baking pan. Ask your child to use the tines of a fork to make patterns on the cookies.

5. Bake the cookies for 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Cool on a cooling rack.

6. Cut rectangular blocks from the ice cream. To do this, peel back the half-gallon carton from the ice cream, and cut 1/2-inch-thick slabs that are roughly the dimensions of your baked cookies. Return the blocks to the freezer.

7. Once the cookies have thoroughly cooled, place one ice cream block between two cookies. Wrap the sandwich in foil, and freeze for several hours. Repeat until used all the cookies and ice cream. Makes enough dough for 6 large sandwiches.
