- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

Instructions
- Make the Cookies: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment. Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, beat butter and sugars until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Gradually add dry ingredients, then stir in chocolate chips.
- Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto baking sheets. Bake 10–12 minutes, until golden. Cool completely.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Place a scoop of ice cream on the flat side of one cookie. Top with another cookie and gently press to spread ice cream. Roll edges in mini chips or sprinkles if desired.
- Place sandwiches on a tray and freeze at least 1 hour before serving.
