Assembly:

Place one scoop vanilla ice cream on top of cookie. Mash down with spoon. Chunk up whatever candy or topping you like, my personal favorite is Ghiradelli milk chocolate and caramel squares. Optional: Sprinkle malton salt on top. I LOVE the chocolate, caramel and salt combo!!! Top with cookie. Enjoy!
