Chocolate chip cookie dough nice cream ? dairy free, vegan, & no added sugar.

So? apparently cookie dough ice cream didn?t exist until 1991.
This really makes me wonder what we all did before that time. I?m trying to remember a world without cookie dough ice cream, but it?s almost as difficult as trying to remember what the world was like before the internet.
Or iPhones.
I first tasted cookie dough ice cream as a child growing up in Tokyo, Japan. By that point, they?d started selling the flavor in America (thanks, Ben & Jerry?s), but it wasn?t readily available to purchase in Japan. So my resourceful mother decided to make homemade cookie dough ice cream for us by replacing the egg in her usual chocolate chip cookie recipe with water and stirring pieces of unbaked cookie dough into store-bought vanilla ice cream. Needless to say, it was pretty amazing.
Making this cookie dough nice cream brought me straight back to childhood. Suddenly I was five years old again, eating ice cream straight from the container… and of course eating all the cookie dough pieces first ? Tell me I?m not the only one who does that!
