Cooking Time About 30 minutes
Serves 10
FOR THE COOKIES
100g unsalted butter,

75g soft light brown sugar
60g white sugar
1 medium egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
200g cake flour
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
100g dark or milk chocolate,
to taste, chopped
TO FILL AND DECORATE
1 ℓ vanilla ice cream
100g milk or dark chocolate,
to taste, coarsely grated
- For the cookies, gently melt butter
in a large pot. Set aside to cool for
5 minutes. Using a wooden spoon,

vanilla and ¼ tsp fine salt. Add flour
and bicarbonate of soda and mix. Stir
in chocolate. Set aside for 10 minutes

grease base and sides of a 20cm round
springform tin. Divide cookie mixture

10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack
to cool completely. Repeat baking and
cooling with remaining dough. - To assemble, let the ice cream soften
at room temperature for 5 minutes.
Grease sides of the cleaned tin and
line sides with baking paper (no lining
needed on base). Place a cookie in the
base (top down). Spoon over the ice
cream in an even layer (making sure it
touches the lined sides of the tin). Sit the
