Ingredients

4 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
4 tsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
1 1/2 cups dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, plus 2 large egg yolks
4 tsp. pure vanilla extract
3 cups bittersweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 pt. vanilla-chocolate chip ice cream, softened
1 1/2 pt. mint chip ice cream, softened
1 1/2 pt. chocolate-chocolate chip ice cream, softened
Chocolate sauce, for topping

Directions

1. Step 1Line 2 large baking pans with parchment paper. Whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
2. Step 2 Beat butter and sugars on medium speed with an electric mixer until combined. Beat in eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla. Reduce mixer speed to low, and slowly add flour mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
3. Step 3Divide dough into fourths. Press into 4 6-inch disks; place 2 disks on each prepared pan. Refrigerate 4 hours or up to 2 days.
4. Step 4Preheat oven to 325°F. Bake cookies, rotating pans halfway through, until the edges are golden but still soft in the center, 20 to 24 minutes. Cool completely on the pans on a wire rack.
5. Step 5Top 3 cookies with 1 flavor of each ice cream, spreading to edges; freeze 4 hours or up to 24 hours. Stack frozen cookies on a cake plate or platter, and top with remaining cookie.
6. Step 6Freeze until ready to serve. Let stand at room temperature before cutting, 10 to 15 minutes. Top with chocolate sauce just before serving.

Once frozen, this high-and-mighty cookies-and-cream cake needs to sit for a spell—15 or 20 minutes—at room temperature before slicing. When it comes time to slice, use a large chef's knife warmed under hot tap water.
