You can strain all the ice cream out of cookie dough ice cream and use its dough to bake cookies. How about that? That's great!

Foodbeast points to Joe Satran of The Huffington Post who came up with the idea to test the dough of cookie dough ice cream and was surprised that a real cookie came out of it instead of some gooey chemical gum substance.

Satran strained out melted ice cream and collected the dough from Edy's, Edy's Maxx, Turkey Hill and Ben & Jerry's cookie dough ice cream. The image above is the result of what he got.

Pretty cool idea.
