INSTRUCTIONS

Sandwich 2 1/2 tablespoons ice milk between 2 snaps, pressing snaps
together gently, and put sandwich on a tray in a freezer. Form 11 more
sandwiches in same manner and freeze on tray, covered, until hard.
Ice-milk sandwiches may be made 1 week ahead and kept frozen,
individually wrapped in plastic wrap.  To make mint chocolate chip ice
milk:  In a saucepan whisk together sugar and cornstarch and whisk in
milk.  Bring mixture to a boil over moderate heat, stirring frequently,
and  boil, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Remove pan from heat.  In a
small bowl stir about one fourth milk mixture into yolks and  pour into
remaining milk mixture, whisking constantly. Cook mixture  over low
heat, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened and a  thermometer
registers 160F. (Do not boil mixture or it will curdle.)  Stir in
crème de menthe and transfer mixture to a bowl. Chill  mixture about 1
hour, or until cool.  In a small heavy saucepan melt chocolate over low
heat, stirring  occasionally and cool slightly. Put chocolate in a
small sealable  plastic bag and seal bag, pressing out excess air.
Squeeze chocolate  to one corner of bag and snip off 1/8 inch from
corner to form a  makeshift pastry bag. Freeze milk mixture in an
ice-cream maker and  with motor running add chocolate in a thin stream
during last few  minutes of freezing time. Makes 3 1/2 cups ice milk.
To make cocoa snaps:  In a bowl whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa
powder, baking powder,  and salt and with fingers blend in butter until
incorporated. Stir in  egg until mixture is combined well. Cover dough
in bowl and chill  until firm, about 1 hour.  Preheat oven to 400F. and
lightly grease a large baking sheet.  Spoon level tablespoons of dough
onto a sheet of wax paper and cut  each in half. With floured hands
roll each piece of dough into a ball  and arrange, evenly spaced, on
baking sheet. Flatten each ball with  floured metal spatula into a disk
about 2 inches in diameter and bake  in middle of oven 7 to 8 minutes,
or until cookies are set but not  hard. Cool cookies on racks. (Cookies
will continue to crisp as they  cool.) Makes about 26 cocoa snaps.
