Try This At Home: Ice Cream Pie

Four All Ice Cream

The only way to make a regular dessert better is to make it in ice cream form.

 

This week's DIY recipe using #fourallicecream cubes is an ice cream pie! Despite various steps, the ingredients and recipe is straight forward and the end result is worth the time and effort.

 

What you need:

  • 1 & 1/4 cup of ground graham crackers (we used a blender to grind them up)
  • 1/4 cup of cane sugar
  • 1/4 cup of melted butter
  • 4 pints of our ice cream (we used 2 different flavours to make a swirly pie!)
  • wax paper
  • pie pan

  

Let's do this:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
  2. Place your pints of ice cream into the fridge for at least 15 minutes to soften.
  3. Grind your graham crackers in the blender and measure out 1 and 1/4 cup into a mixing bowl
  4. Add 1/4 cup of cane sugar to the graham cracker flour and mix together with a fork
  5. Melt 1/4 cup of butter on the stove then add it to the mixing bowl
  6. Use a fork to combine the butter, ground graham crackers and sugar. The consistency should be a small crumble.
  7. Line a pie pan with wax paper then spread the crust evenly on the bottom. Use the bottom of a glass to flatten and even out the crust.
  8. Bake the crust in the oven for 10 minutes. Then let it cool for another 10 minutes.
  9. Empty your pints with softened ice cream into a mixing bowl and stir with a spatula to form an even consistency. 
  10. Add your ice cream on top of the crust quickly, then place the finished pie into the freezer for an hour or longer.
  11. Ta-da! Ice cream pie!
  12. Use the wax paper to lift the pie from the pan and cut slices with a sharp knife.
  13. You are officially the best dessert maker EVER.
