Description

This ice cream pie is not only as tasty as can be but also as versatile as it can possibly get. Use whatever ice cream flavor(s) you like. Use whatever candy combinations you like as well. There is literally no wrong combination. It's all a matter of preference.

You can add additional ingredients to the top of the pie if you'd like before freezing. I have use chocolate chips, candied pecans, additional chopped candy... I've done it all and the all-time favorite way of enjoying it is simply with caramel sauce or hot fudge sauce. Sometimes the key is simplicity, but the choice is entirely yours. 

 

Elements:

For the Ice Cream Pie Filling

For the Graham Cracker Crust

Tutorial

Buttery Graham Cracker Pie Shell

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

  2. Place the graham crackers in a gallon size zip lock bag Remove the air from inside and using a rolling pin, smash the crackers until they resemble breadcrumbs.

    You could also use a food processor for this step.

  3. Place the crushed graham crackers into a bowl and add the melted butter, combining thoroughly until the graham crackers hold a pinch. 

  4. Using a spatula, press the buttery crumbs into the pie plate starting on the bottom and working your way up the sides pressing firmly and packing them tightly.

    Bake for 5 minutes and allow to cool completely.

Ice Cream Pie Filling

  1. Remove the pints of ice cream from the freezer and allow to become soft and mixable. Do not let them thaw completely to a soup like consistency. You want it smooth but still firm and a bit frozen. 

  2. Using a knife, chop up the candy bars and add them to the ice cream. Using a spatula, fold the candy bar pieces into the ice cream until combined throughout. 

    Pour the ice cream mixture directly onto the completely cooled graham cracker crumb. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours. 

    Serve and Enjoy!!

    We like it with my homemade caramel drizzled over the top of the slice.
