Classic chocolate and the cult favorite Golden Oreos are the two most widely accessible options.

Your patience will be rewarded, because this technique makes assembly a breeze.

Eating them any sooner, of course, will give you a crunchier cookie.

It all depends on what youre into!

Time eating the ice cream sandwiches based on your preference.

For a tender cookie that still has some crunch, wait about 12 hours before eating.

The ice cream sandwiches are best consumed within 1 week.
