Method
 

Ice Cream Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  2. In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and salt until fluffy. Gradually incorporate heat-treated flour and fold in mini chocolate chips. Chill for 30 minutes.
  3. Churn the chilled ice cream base in an ice cream maker for 20-25 minutes until thickened to soft-serve consistency.
  4. Fold in the chilled cookie dough chunks into the ice cream until evenly distributed.
  5. Transfer the blended ice cream to an airtight container, smoothing the top, and freeze for 3-4 hours or overnight until firm.
  6. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes for easy scooping.
