Chocolate Chip Ice Dream Recipe
Yay, today is finally Friday! I thought I’d celebrate with a tasty treat to beat the heat here in Los Angeles! This is a very quick and easy recipe that will be sure to impress any weekend guests that might stop by!
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 handfuls of chocolate chips
- Carton of vanilla or your choice of ice cream
PREHEAT oven to 375° F.
COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.
BAKE for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
While cookies are cooling let ice cream sit at room temperature for 15 minutes for easier spreading.
Once Cookies are cooled, take two cookies and spread with about a 1/4in. of ice cream on each. Place cookies on top of each other with the ice cream facing inward towards one another and apply pressure without breaking the cookie.
Wrap in plastic wrap and let sit in the freezer for at least 20 minutes before serving. Makes 14 sandwiches.
YUMMY! ENJOY!
Speedy Girl: The Idea
A Pretty Floral Couch…
The idea for www.ShopSpeedyGirl.com came about one afternoon as I sat surfing shopping websites on my newly acquired vintage floral couch. I thought ‘Oh wow, these are all overpriced cuteness! Maybe I could share these styles at better prices!’
I made a quick reality check on my idea with several friends …. then, 2 partners and a super dog were appointed… and the mission began, to track down pretty dresses and be able to offer them at reasonable prices. See what pretty floral couches do for me? :p
Lots of Pretty Dresses to fill my closet FAST!…
In my quest to honor great prices without sacrificing quality, style or comfort (yes, we’re very picky about quality), and then get them to you in a pretty package, there was a catch; to negotiate the best rates, we have to unite and pool our orders in as short a time as possible. In doing so, we’ll be able to offer up to 50% off current styles that are sold at competitor websites and fill up our closets FAST!
That said, we’re not another flash sale website. Flash sale sites typically offer past season merchandise at a deep discount. At Speedy Girl, the merchandise we offer are current styles found on competitor websites at up to double the price. We can’t point them out to you, but we’re positive if you come across the same dress, you’ll be jumping on your floral couch, pleasantly pleased you bought yours at Speedy Girl. ;D
Simplicity is Key
So, think of a visit to www.ShopSpeedyGirl.com like a drive-thru ATM. 2 items on sale for 24 hours and up to 2 shipping methods. Spare the mind boggling decisions because not only will you be out in a jiffy, it keeps our operational costs low so prices can stay competitive.
