Tomorrow is National Cotton Candy Day! Woo hoo! An excuse to eat some of the sweet stuff. I wanted to make a cotton candy type recipe and came up with the perfect one! Giant Cotton Candy Sugar Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches are sure to be your favorite summer treat. Two huge soft sugar cookies stuffed with cotton candy ice cream! Delicious.

While I loved these cookies with the cotton candy ice cream, if that doesn't appeal to you, feel free to use any kind of ice cream that you like. I did use white whole-wheat flour for this recipe for some additional fiber and nutrients.

These ice cream sandwiches are not your healthy-banana-nice-cream between super healthy cookies. Nope! These are a true dessert and a summer must-have. I recently found some cookie ice cream sandwiches on sale at my local grocery store and got a box. They disappeared within a few days. Somehow, we had never had cookie ice cream sandwiches before so I got the idea to make my own with much better quality cookies. I'm so glad that I tried this because they are super delicious.

First, you make the giant sugar cookies and let them cool. Then, you stuff them with the cotton candy ice cream. I made a bunch, stored them in a Chicago Metallic Elite Cake Pan and covered them for when I was ready to serve. The pan is made with a heavy-duty steel construction and is covered in a nonstick coating. I look forward to using this pan for many different recipes!

I made the cookies super huge so if you prefer a smaller size, you can get more cookies from the batch. Make these all summer long and enjoy outside. We are loving summer and can't get enough frozen treats!
