I got an ice cream maker for my birthday a month ago and haven't been able to use it because the weather has been so darn cold. Finally the temperature warmed up this weekend and I was able to make some delicious vanilla cardamom ice cream.
It needed something extra, so I decided to bake some crunchy lace cookies to go with my dessert. This recipe makes a whole lot, so you might want to divide the ingredients by half if you don't plan on sharing them with a large group. Make sure to space the cookie dough out by at least one inch because they will expand considerably while in the oven. I made the mistake of placing them to closely during my first batch and I was left with one giant cookie. Enjoy these cookies alone or with a giant scoop of vegan ice cream.

I've never had lace cookies. But the idea of ice cream and crunch sounds fantastic!
ReplyDeleteVanilla cardamom ice cream sounds delightful, and that bowl of it with the chocolate sauce and the lace cookies has woken up my sweet tooth.
ReplyDeleteonly one word...DELICIOUS!
ReplyDeleteIce cream makers are a must have, especially in the summer.
ReplyDeleteSounds like such an easy recipe! I've had cookies before turn into one giant cookie, too. The best thing to do in that situation is to take one giant bite. :-)
