Cookies in two states, whole pieces and a swirl, which is the same ingredient handled two ways. The pieces stay crunchy and the swirl carries the flavor through the base without any texture at all. Milk chocolatey ganache goes across the top with fudge chips set into it. Ganache is chocolate and cream rather than chocolate alone, so it's soft enough to spoon through instead of shattering the way a plain chocolate shell would. Cookies in ice cream are always a race against moisture. A cookie in contact with anything frozen and wet takes on water and softens, so the pieces have to be dry and hard-baked enough to hold out for the life of the tub.
