Transfer ice cream into an airtight container; freeze for several hours, or for a firmer ice cream, freeze overnight. Scoop ice cream, place between 2 cookies and gently press.

For a prefect ice cream round: line a 9 inches x 13 inches pan with foil then evenly spread freshly-churned ice cream into the pan with a rubber spatula; cover and freeze overnight. Use a cookie cutter to cut desired diameter of ice cream rounds and place between 2 cookies.
