Instructions
Whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat butter, sugar, and corn syrup in another medium bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add egg yolk and vanilla; beat until combined.
Reduce mixer speed to low, add dry ingredients, and mix until just combined.
Mix in sour cream. Form dough into a 3/4"-thick square, wrap tightly in plastic, and chill until firm, 2-3 hours.
Roll out dough between 2 sheets of parchment to about 1/8" thickness.
Transfer dough (still between parchment) to a large baking sheet and chill until firm, at least 30 minutes.
Remove top sheet of parchment (it will come away easily if dough is well chilled) and trim to a 14x10" rectangle.
Bake cookie until dry and just set at edges, 8-10 minutes.
Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack; let cookie cool.
Trim cookie to a 12x9" rectangle, then cut into twelve 3" squares. Scoop ice cream into a medium bowl and mix just until softened, 2-3 minutes. Turn 6 cookies bottom side up. Dividing evenly, scoop ice cream on top and flatten slightly; top with remaining cookies, pressing down gently.
Place sandwiches on a parchmentlined baking sheet and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours.
Cut sandwiches in half on a diagonal to make triangles. Wrap in parchment, if desired, and freeze until ready to serve.
DO AHEAD: Ice cream sandwiches can be made 1 week ahead. Keep frozen.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Moscato Dasti, Port
Ice Cream works really well with Cream Sherry, Moscato d'Asti, and Port. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. One wine you could try is NV Solera Cream Sherry. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.

NV Solera Cream Sherry
The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
