Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sandwiches

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• Pinch of salt
• 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup smooth peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 cups chocolate or strawberry ice cream, or a combination, softened

1. Preheat oven to 375u0b0F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment.
2. Sift flour, baking soda and salt together. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat butter and sugar together until light, about 2 minutes. Add egg; mix well. Beat in peanut butter and vanilla. Beat flour mixture into butter mixture.
3. Roll dough into 1 1/2-inch balls; place 2 inches apart on sheets. Flatten with a fork in a crisscross design. Bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool on sheets for 5 minutes; transfer to a rack to cool.
4. Place 1 scoop of ice cream on a cookie, top with another cookie and carefully press down. Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze. Repeat with remaining cookies and ice cream. Freeze for 45 minutes; serve.
