Time 7h20m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting (see Cook's Note)
1/3 cup finely ground dehydrated unsweetened cranberries
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) very cold butter, cut into cubes
5 tablespoons very cold vodka
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup triple sec (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon unflavored powdered gelatin
2 1/2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
1 teaspoon orange zest plus 1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup very cold heavy cream
1 large egg white
1/2 cup fresh cranberries
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Orange peel, cut into thin strips, for garnish
Sweetened whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • For the crust: Add the flour, cranberries, sugar and salt to a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the butter, pulsing until you have pea-sized pieces. Mix together the vodka and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. Add 3 tablespoons of the vodka mixture to the flour mixture and pulse, adding more of the vodka mixture a tablespoon at a time as needed, until the dough comes together when gently pinched (you may not need to add all of it). Dump the dough onto a sheet of plastic wrap, flatten into a disc and wrap tightly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  • Put the dough on a lightly floured work surface and roll into a 1/4-inch-thick round. Use the rolling pin to help guide the dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Press gently into the corners of the pie plate and crimp the edges decoratively. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Arrange an oven rack in the bottom third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Prick the bottom of the dough all over with the tines of a fork. Place a piece of parchment on top of the dough and fill with pie weights or baking beans. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove the parchment and pie weights and bake until golden around the edges and light golden in the center, an additional 25 to 30 minutes. Cool completely.
  • For the filling: Add 2 tablespoons triple sec to a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over top; set aside.
  • Add the cranberries, orange zest and juice, ginger, 1/2 cup sugar and remaining 2 tablespoons triple sec to a small saucepan and place over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and continue to cook until the cranberries begin to pop and break down, about 10 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the gelatin mixture until completely dissolved and combined. Transfer the mixture to a blender and let cool slightly, then puree until very smooth. Pour into a large bowl and set aside to cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
  • When the mixture has cooled, add the heavy cream to a stand mixture fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on high, streaming in the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar slowly, until the mixture reaches stiff peaks. Stir one-third of the whipped cream into the cranberry mixture to lighten it. Then fold the cranberry mixture into the remaining whipped cream until no streaks remain. Add the filling to the pie crust. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
  • For the decorations: Before serving, beat the egg white together with 1 tablespoon water. Toss the cranberries in the egg white mixture, then drain completely using a wide-mesh strainer. Put the sugar in a medium bowl, add the cranberries and toss to coat completely. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet to dry.
  • Pile whipped cream in the center of the pie, top with the cranberries and sprinkle with the orange peel strips.

Categories     dessert

Time 3h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 cups self-rising flour, plus more for the dough
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Pinch of kosher salt or sea salt
8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, diced
About 1/4 cup cold water
2 cups granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Zest of 1 orange
4 cups cranberries, thawed if frozen (from a 12-ounce frozen bag)
Orange slices, for topping
1/4 cup granulated sugar

Steps:

  • For the crust: Add the flour, sugar and salt to a food processor. Process a few times to combine. While pulsing, add the cubes of butter. Keep pulsing until the mixture looks like a coarse meal. Add 2 tablespoons of the water and process again a few times. Add more water until the dough starts to come together. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface. Shape into a round and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Remove the pie dough from the refrigerator and roll out into a large round, about 12 inches. Transfer to a 9-inch pie dish, fold over the sides and use a fork to press a design into the edges.
  • For the filling: Whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, flour and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until uniform in color and no egg white is visible. Whisk in the sugar mixture until smooth. Add the heavy cream, vanilla and orange zest and whisk to combine. Add the cranberries to the bottom of the pie crust and pour the custard over the top.
  • Bake until the custard is set with a slight wobble in the center, about 50 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • For the assembly: Sprinkle the orange slices with the sugar and use to decoratively garnish the pie before serving at room temperature or chilled.

Many years ago, I dreamed up this recipe for a contest. My family loves it as an alternative to the traditional Thanksgiving desserts. Frozen whipped topping may be substituted for the ice cream and topping, if desired. Frozen strawberries may be substituted for the cranberry sauce.

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Cranberry Dessert Recipes

Time 2h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup cranberry juice
1 (6 ounce) package strawberry flavored Jell-O®
1 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
½ cup vanilla ice cream
1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
½ cup heavy cream
¼ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Heat the cranberry juice in a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir in strawberry flavored gelatin until dissolved. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer to a medium bowl, and beat with an electric mixer until fluffy.
  • In a blender or food processor, finely chop the whole cranberry sauce. Mix in the gelatin mixture and vanilla ice cream until well blended.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a tart and tangy flavor that is perfect for ice cream pie. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Make sure your ice cream is firm. The ice cream should be firm enough to scoop easily, but not so hard that it's difficult to eat. If your ice cream is too soft, it will melt quickly and make the pie difficult to slice.
  • Use a graham cracker crust. A graham cracker crust is the classic choice for ice cream pie because it's sturdy and easy to make. You can also use a chocolate cookie crust or an Oreo cookie crust, if you prefer.
  • Don't overmix the filling. Overmixing the filling will make it tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the pie before serving. This will help the pie to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Cranberry ice cream pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that's perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you use fresh or frozen cranberries, a graham cracker crust or a chocolate cookie crust, this pie is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give cranberry ice cream pie a try. You won't be disappointed.
