    Yield: 6 servings

    125 g Dark chocolate
    125 g Unsalted butter; room temp
    125 g Light brown sugar
    1 ts Vanilla extract
    1 lg Egg; room temp
    150 g Plain flour; sifted
    30 g Cocoa; sifted
    1/2 ts Baking powder; sifted
    75 g Milk chocolate chips
    75 g White chocolate chips
    300 g Vanilla ice cream

    Set the oven @ 350°F/175°C.

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Break up the dark chocolate and melt it either in a
    non-metallic bowl in a microwave. For an 800w microwave
    do this in bursts of 30 seconds at a time until melted,
    or in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of gently
    simmering water for 10 minutes stirring to help it melt.

    Place the soft butter and brown sugar in a large mixing
    bowl and whisk until they're smooth and creamy.

    Add the vanilla extract, egg and melted chocolate and
    whisk again to mix thoroughly.

    Add the flour, cocoa and baking powder and once they're
    all mixed together with no floury steaks stir in the
    chocolate chips. I like to mix milk and white but you
    can use whichever ones you prefer.

    Tip the cookie dough out of the bowl onto a sheet of
    cling film lightly sprinkled with flour (to stop it
    sticking) and roll it up into a log shape twisting the
    ends of the cling film to create a tight barrel about 24
    cm long. Wrap again in baking parchment if you find it
    too fragile to move. At this stage it's then best to
    rest it in a freezer for 30 minutes. It can be frozen
    for up to 1 month before using.

    When ready to bake remove the dough from the freezer,
    unwrap from the cling film and cut into 12 slices
    approximately 1 1/2 cm thick. Place on the lined baking
    sheet and bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Once removed
    from the oven, transfer to a wire rack and allow them to
    cool -- but keep them safe from any hungry mouths!

    Take a small scoop of ice cream and sandwich it in
    between two cookies.

    Work quickly and place them back into the freezer so the
    whoopie pies can set for about half an hour before
    serving.
