Scoop out cookies and put them on a parchment lined baking sheet. Press them down a little as they don't like to spread a ton. Bake for 10-12 min at 350°F

Semifreddo
Step 1
put the egg yolks, sugar, salt, and vanilla bean paste in a heat safe bowl and place on a simmering pot of water (make sure the bowl doesn't actually touch the water). Whisk constantly for 2-3 minutes until it thickens up and lightens in color and all of the sugar is dissolved. Set aside to cool to room temp.
4 Egg Yolks
100 g (1/2c) Sugar
pinch Salt
1 tsp Vanilla Bean Paste
Step 2
Grab another bowl for the whipped cream. If whipping by hand you want to make sure the bowl and the cream are both very cold. I put my bowl in the freezer for 30 minutes before whipping. Whip by hand or with some electronic help until soft peaks, you want it to hold its shape but still be silky smooth.
1 1/2c Heavy Cream
Step 3
Mix maybe 1/3 of the whipped cream into the custard (which should be room temp) and just mix it together, then pour into the remaining cream and gently fold until consistent. If you want to you can add in some stuff like peanut butter and/or caramel, now would be the time. Freeze overnight.
