Instructions
Make the CookiesAdd the softened Umpqua Salted Butter to the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until creamy. Add the brown sugar and continue mixing until light and fluffy, about 30 seconds.Add the eggs and mix until well incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt, and flour. Mix until a soft cookie dough forms, about 30 seconds.Using a ¼-cup cookie scoop, portion the dough into balls. Roll each cookie dough ball in granulated sugar and place on a nonstick or parchment-lined baking sheet.Refrigerate the cookie dough for 30 minutes.Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the chilled cookies for 12–14 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still soft.Allow the cookies to cool completely before assembling the ice cream sandwiches. Place them in the freezer for about 20 minutes before assembly for even better firmness once assembled.
Make the CrispPreheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.Combine the dark brown sugar, flour, oats, softened Umpqua Salted Butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a bowl. Mix until crumbly.Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 8–10 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp.Allow the crisp to cool completely, then crumble it into a shallow bowl.
Assemble the Ice Cream SandwichesPlace a generous scoop of Umpqua Vanilla Bean Ice Cream onto the flat side of one cooled cookie. I used a ¼ cup scoop for the ice cream as well. Using a small piece of parchment and the bottom of a glass, gently press the ice cream so it reaches close to the edges.Using a small round cookie cutter or a knife, cut a small well into the center of the ice cream. Spoon peach pie filling into the opening.Place a second cookie on top and gently press to create a sandwich.Turn the ice cream sandwich on its side and roll the exposed ice cream edges through the cooled crisp mixture, gently pressing the crumble into the ice cream so it sticks.Enjoy immediately, or place the finished sandwiches in the freezer until firm.
