Chocolate Caramel And Waffle Cone Ice Cream Pie Recipes

ICE CREAM PIE WITH EASY CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Crush the graham crackers in a food processor or resealable plastic bag. Pour the crumbs into a bowl and stir in the melted butter. Press into a pie pan and bake until golden and set, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
• For the filling: Remove the ice cream from the freezer and allow to soften slightly. Mix in the pecans, peanut butter cups and peanut butter crunch candy bars and pour the ice cream mixture into the crust. Cover with foil and freeze until very hard, 1 to 2 hours.
• For the caramel sauce: Mix the brown sugar, half-and-half, butter and salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, while whisking gently, until thicker, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the vanilla and cook another minute to thicken further. Pour the sauce into a jar and refrigerate until cold.
• To serve, cut slices of the pie and serve on individual plates with cold caramel sauce spooned over the top and sprinkled with pecans. Serve with extra caramel sauce on the side.

WAFFLE CONE ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using an ice cream scoop, remove three large scoops ice cream to a plate. Place the plate in the freezer and return the gallon to the freezer.
• Add 9 of the waffle cones to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the cones become a mix of mostly crumbs with a few larger chunks here and there. Pulse in the melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch nonstick springform pan. Bake for 5 minutes. Let cool completely, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the rest of the ice cream from the freezer to start to soften it a little bit.
• Meanwhile, put the white chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15-second increments until melted and smooth. (This time will vary based on your microwave.) Working one at a time, dip the top quarter of the 3 remaining waffle cones in the white chocolate mixture, then sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons rainbow sprinkles. Place the cones onto champagne flutes, decorated-side down, to set. (You can also set them on wax paper to set.)
• Add the remaining softened ice cream to the crust and spread to smooth. Sprinkle the chopped strawberries over the top and gently press into the ice cream. Using a spoon, drizzle the top with the remaining white chocolate mixture. Finish with the remaining tablespoon sprinkles.
• Remove the scoops of ice cream from the freezer and place them in the center of the pie. Top each scoop with one inverted decorated ice cream cone; be sure to place them on an angle, so they are not sitting vertically on the ice cream scoops. Transfer the pie to the freezer and let set for at least 2 hours.
• When ready to serve, run a sharp knife around the edge of the pie to help release it from the springform pan. Remove the pie from the pan, slice and serve drizzled with the strawberry sauce.

WAFFLE CONE ICE CREAM SUNDAE PIE

Steps:

• Place 10 waffle cones in a large resealable bag. Crush the cones into large pieces (about 1/2 inch). Reserve 2/3 cup for garnish. Place the remaining crushed cones into a large bowl. Add 1 cup hardening chocolate sauce and toss to coat. Place into a 9-inch pie dish and press to form a crust. Place in the freezer to set, about 20 minutes.
• Spread the softened ice cream into the pie crust, being sure to make the top as smooth as possible. Press the remaining 2/3 cup crushed waffle cone around the edge of the pie to form a crust rim. Place in the freezer until the ice cream firms up, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla in a large, chilled metal bowl until it holds medium-stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• To serve, spread 1/3 cup of the hardening chocolate sauce over the ice cream. Top with the whipped cream. Drizzle with the caramel sauce and hot fudge sauce. Garnish with the peanuts, sprinkles and cherries. Place the remaining waffle cone upside-down in the center of the pie and serve.

ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the graham crackers in a large plastic zipper bag and seal it. Smash the crackers with a rolling pin until they're crushed into fine crumbs. (Or you can use a food processor!) Move the crumbs to a large bowl, then pour in the melted butter and stir them to combine. Press the crumbs into a pie plate slowly packing them so they're firm. Bake the crust for 5 minutes, then let it cool completely.
• Make the filling: In a large bowl, stir the ice cream until it's smooth but still firm and somewhat frozen. Add the pecans and candies and stir until it's all combined.
• Pour the mixture into the cooled crust and smooth the surface, then cover the pie and place it in the freezer to harden, 2 to 3 hours minimum. (Psst: Make it up to a week in advance! It keeps well in the freezer if it's covered tightly.)
• Use a warm knife to cut neat slices, then drizzle with your favorite jarred caramel or hot fudge sauce.
• Change Things Up!
• Make a chocolate mint version: Use mint chocolate chip ice cream and mix in chopped peppermint patties. Pour it into a chocolate cookie crust.
• Use any combination of ice cream flavor and candy/nut you'd like!

CHOCOLATE-CARAMEL BANANA ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pulse the graham crackers, butter, sugar and vanilla in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Press evenly into the bottom and up the side of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake until firm, about 15 minutes; let cool completely.
• Make the filling: Put the chocolate and 1/4 cup ice cream in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until the mixture is almost melted; whisk until smooth. Beat the remaining ice cream in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy but not melted, about 3 minutes; beat in the chocolate mixture. Freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, arrange the banana slices in the pie crust. Spread the dulce de leche over the bananas and freeze until cold, about 30 minutes. Scoop the ice cream over the bananas and dulce de leche and smooth with a rubber spatula. Freeze until very firm, 4 hours.
• Make the glaze: Bring the heavy cream to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat. Remove from the heat and whisk in the chocolate and corn syrup until melted and smooth. Let cool, whisking occasionally, until spreadable, about 15 minutes. Slowly pour the glaze over the ice cream; return to the freezer until set. Let the pie soften 10 minutes at room temperature before slicing.

CHOCOLATE-BANANA ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Pulse the cookies, coconut and butter in a food processor until finely ground. Press into the bottom and halfway up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Slice the bananas and arrange in a layer over the crust. Freeze until the crust sets, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, let the vanilla ice cream soften at room temperature.
• Spread the vanilla ice cream evenly over the banana layer. Freeze until firm, about 2 hours. Let the chocolate ice cream soften at room temperature, then spread over the vanilla layer. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Remove the pie from the freezer 20 minutes before serving. Beat the cream and confectioners' sugar with a mixer until soft peaks form, then spread over the pie. Top with toasted coconut, if desired.

CHOCOLATE-CARAMEL CREAM PIE

Steps:

• On a lightly floured work surface, roll pate sucree to 1/8-inch thickness. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim edges, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Tuck overhang under dough so edges are flush with rim, and crimp edges. Lightly prick bottom of dough with a fork. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line dough with parchment, and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edges begin to look dry, 20 to 22 minutes. Carefully remove weights and parchment. Bake until crust is darker around edges and bottom looks dry, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. (Chocolate crust can be stored overnight.)
• Whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a small bowl. Heat milk and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until chocolate melts.
• Whisk 1 cup hot milk mixture into sugar mixture until smooth. Whisk milk-sugar mixture into the remaining milk mixture in the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until bubbling and thick, 4 to 5 minutes total (about 2 minutes after it comes to a boil).
• Whisk yolks in a medium bowl until combined. Pour in milk mixture in a slow, steady stream, whisking until completely incorporated. Return mixture to saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it just begins to bubble, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla. Let custard cool in saucepan on a wire rack, whisking occasionally, for about 10 minutes.
• Pour custard into chocolate crust. Press plastic wrap directly on surface of custard. Refrigerate until custard filling is chilled and firm, at least 4 hours (or overnight).
• Spread caramel whipped cream over pie. Using a vegetable peeler, scrape chocolate block at a 45-degree angle to make a small mound of shavings, and sprinkle over whipped cream. Serve immediately, or refrigerate and serve within 2 hours.
