Ice Cream:
- Strawberries (250 ml)
- Sugar (80 ml)
- Light Cream (250 ml)
-1/4 Juice of half a lemon
Cookie:
- All-purpose Flour (315 ml)
- Cocoa (125 ml)
- Baking Soda (5 ml)
- Baking Powder (1 ml)
- Teaspoon Salt (1 ml)
- Granulated Sugar (250 ml)
- Room- Temperature Margarine (125 ml)
- 1 egg
Method:
1) Combine all ingredients (including the bean and its pulp) in a large saucepan and place over medium heat. Attach a frying or candy thermometer to inside of pan. Stirring occasionally, bring the mixture to 170°F
2) Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Remove the hull of the vanilla bean, pour mixture into lidded container and refrigerate mixture overnight to mellow flavours and texture.
3) Freeze mixture in ice cream freezer.
4) For cookies: Pre-heat oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the margarine and sugar. Add the egg.
5) Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and powder, salt, and sugar.
6) On the lowest speed add the dry ingredients. Continue mixing until dough comes together.
7) Using a tablespoon or a small ice-cream scooper, scoop out about 15ml of the dough. Roll into a ball and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicon mat.
8) Continue with the rest of the dough, leaving two inches of space around each ball on the cookie sheet. With slightly wet hands, lightly press down each dough ball.
9) Bake for 9-10minutes. Remove cookies to a cooling rack and cool completly.
10) While cookies are baking, transfer ice-cream in refrigerator to soften slightly, about 15 minutes.
11) Beat ice-cream on medium-high speed until soft enough to spread, about 2minutes, or beat with a wooden spoon. Spoon some softened ice-cream onto a cookie, and top with another cookie. Place sandwich in freezer, and continue process.
12) After the ice-cream has hardened, wrap sandwiches tightly in plastic wrap. Hill overnight in freezer. For best result, prepare these sandwiches the day before serving.
