My mom recalls these cookies as a staple after school treat. And as a super special treat, my Mamaw would sandwich vanilla ice cream between two cookies, wrap them in wax paper and store them in bread bags in the freezer.

Chewy, peanut buttery and chocolaty, they can be a bit messy to make but totally worth it. Be sure to use quick oats to get the best consistency. These cookies can be made any size—and are great with ice cream!

To make ice cream sandwiches, place 1 scoop of ice cream (about 1/3 cup) between 2 cookies of equal size. Gently press cookies together. The ice cream should spread to edge of cookies. Eat immediately, or to save for later, wrap sandwiches individually in plastic wrap. Place in resealable freezer bag.
