4 large peanut butter cup candies, roughly chopped
1 cup chocolate ice cream, slightly softened

Time 7h15m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 cups sugar
1/3 cup water
3/4 cup whipping cream
1/3 cup butter, cut into pieces
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups chocolate wafer cookie crumbs (about 40 cookies)
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted, cooled
2 pints (4 cups) dulce de leche ice cream, softened
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans, toasted
1 pint (2 cups) chocolate ice cream, softened
1 can (7 oz) whipped cream topping

Steps:

  • In 3-quart heavy saucepan, cook sugar and water over medium-low heat, stirring often, until sugar is dissolved. Increase heat to medium-high; boil gently, without stirring, about 8 minutes, until syrup turns a deep amber color, occasionally brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush and swirling pan. (Swirling the pan, instead of stirring, promotes more even cooking.) Gradually add whipping cream (sauce will bubble vigorously). Add 1/3 cup butter; stir gently until smooth. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Set aside.
  • Heat oven to 325°F. In small bowl, mix cookie crumbs and 1/4 cup butter. Press crumbs in bottom of ungreased 9-inch springform pan. Bake 10 minutes. Cool completely.
  • Spoon 1 pint dulce de leche ice cream into cooled crust; spread evenly. Drizzle 1/3 cup of the Caramel Sauce over ice cream; sprinkle with 3/4 cup of the pecans. Freeze 15 minutes or until ice cream is almost firm. Repeat layers with chocolate ice cream, another 1/3 cup Caramel Sauce and remaining 3/4 cup pecans. Freeze until almost firm. Top with remaining dulce de leche ice cream and another 1/3 cup Caramel Sauce. Cover; freeze 6 hours or up to 2 weeks. Refrigerate remaining 3/4 cup Caramel Sauce until serving time.
  • Before serving, remove side and bottom of pan; place pie on serving plate. Top with whipped cream topping. In small microwavable bowl, microwave remaining Caramel Sauce uncovered on High 1 minute or until warm. Drizzle sauce over each serving.

Tips for Making Layered Ice Cream Pie:

  • Choose high-quality ice cream. The better the ice cream, the better the pie will be. Look for ice cream that is smooth and creamy, with a rich flavor.
  • Use a variety of flavors. Don't be afraid to mix and match different flavors of ice cream. A classic combination is chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry, but you can also try more unique flavors like salted caramel, mint chocolate chip, or even avocado.
  • Make sure the ice cream is firm. Before you start layering the pie, make sure the ice cream is firm enough to scoop. If the ice cream is too soft, it will be difficult to layer and the pie will be messy.
  • Use a springform pan. A springform pan is the best type of pan to use for a layered ice cream pie because it makes it easy to remove the pie from the pan. You can also use a regular pie plate, but you will need to be careful when removing the pie from the pan.
  • Freeze the pie before serving. Once you have assembled the pie, freeze it for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help the pie to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Layered ice cream pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy texture and variety of flavors, it is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give this layered ice cream pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
