Ingredients
  

For the Cookies:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

1 cup diced ripe peaches (fresh or canned, drained)

For the Peach Ice Cream:

2 cups heavy cream

1 cup whole milk

¾ cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 ½ cups diced peaches (fresh, frozen, or canned, drained)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

Make the Cookies:

    - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

      - In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

        - Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

          - In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

            - Gently fold in the diced peaches.

              - Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.

                - Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.

                  Prepare the Peach Ice Cream:

                    - In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.

                      - Fold in the diced peaches, then pour the mixture into an ice cream maker. Churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.

                        - Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

                          Assemble the Sandwiches:

                            - Take one cookie and place a generous scoop of the peach ice cream on the bottom. Top with another cookie, pressing down gently to create a sandwich.

                              - Repeat this process with the remaining cookies and ice cream.

                                - Serve immediately or wrap each sandwich in parchment paper and freeze for later.
