Cover dough and refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 350. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Working in batches, scoop 2 tablespoon mounds of dough and place two inches apart on baking sheet, bake about 10 minutes until cookies are dry around edges and cracked on top. Cool on cookie sheet 10 minutes before moving to a baking rack to cool completely before making ice cream sandwiches.

To make ice cream sandwiches, put some vanilla ice cream on bottom of one cookie, top with another cookie and press lightly to make a sandwich. Roll edges in toasted coconut for half of sandwiches and sprinkles for the other half.
