Method
 

How to Make Vegan Ice Cream Batwiches
  1. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the organic flour, Dutch cocoa powder, cornstarch, sea salt, and baking powder. Cream the vegan butter and organic sugar until fluffy. Slowly blend in the vanilla extract and nondairy milk, then gradually incorporate the dry ingredients until just mixed.
  2. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Roll out the chilled dough between two pieces of parchment paper to a thickness of ⅛ - ¼ inch and use a bat-shaped cookie cutter to cut out shapes.
  4. Arrange the bat cookies on parchment-lined baking sheets and bake for 6 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the tray for 2 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
  5. While the cookies cool, soften the vegan ice cream in a food processor or mixer until creamy.
  6. Spread the softened ice cream onto a lined pan and freeze overnight. Use the bat cutter to cut out matching bat shapes, sandwich the ice cream between two cookies, and freeze until solid.
