- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar

- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoon granulated sugar for rolling

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and ¾ cup of sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
- In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar with the ground cinnamon.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls.
- Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until well coated.
- Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Slightly flatten each dough ball with the bottom of a glass or your hand.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cookies are cooled, place a scoop of ice cream on the bottom of one cookie and top with another cookie to form a sandwich.
- Gently press the cookies together to sandwich the ice cream between them.
- Repeat with the remaining cookies and ice cream.
- Place the assembled ice cream sandwiches on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 1 hour before serving.
- Store any leftover sandwiches in an airtight container in the freezer.
