Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches (Or Whoopie Pies!!)

Ciao everyone!!

I think you should know by now a few things about me, from recurring themes in posts...

1) Christ the Lord is awesome and marvelous. He is God and He is the Savior of the world. And I believe that with my whole heart!

2) I love chocolate. AALLOOTT.

3) I love happy accidents!

And here is another recipe post about a veerryyyy happy accident:)

On my way to trying to configure a soy-based chocolate chip cookie recipe (which needs to be vegan and gluten free, in my opinion), I accidentally created the perfect cookie to be part in a sandwiching situation involving vegan whipped cream (which is also a recipe on this blog)!!

Very delicous, rather simple, and fun!

This recipe can be enjoyed as whoopie pies if not frozen, or very yummy ice cream sandwiches if frozen for 30 minutes before eating.... so try it both ways and see what your fancy is!!
