Can we just marry those three words? Ice Cream Pie.
You see, my aunt Laura made this crazy good chocolate and coffee ice cream pie. I don’t want to even know how many slices I ate. I basically killed one full pie by myself.
I lightened her recipe up a bit…your waist can thank me later…and it’s just in time for Frozen Treat Week!
This pie is so great because you can really make it what you want! Customizable is my new favorite thing. You could make it with:
- graham cracker crust
- whole wheat pie crust
- chocolate chip cookie crust
- chocolate ice cream
- vanilla ice cream
- strawberry ice cream
- ANY ice cream
- oreo cookies
- chocolate chips
- crushed candy bars
- fresh fruit
- ANY fillings!
You can’t go wrong. Make it your own!
For me, I’ll stick with chocolate on chocolate on chocolate…because that’s how I roll.
What do you think?
By the looks of it, I don’t think I liked it one bit. 😉
