Categories     Chocolate     Dessert     Walnut     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

For crust
1 9-ounce package chocolate wafer cookies, broken into pieces
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted
For milk chocolate fudge sauce
2/3 cup whipping cream
8 ounces imported milk chocolate (such as Lindt), chopped
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
For marshmallow sauce
4 cups miniature marshmallows (about 7 1/2 ounces)
1/3 cup whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 quarts chocolate ice cream, slightly softened
1 cup walnuts, toasted, coarsely chopped (about 3 3/4 ounces)

Steps:

  • Make crust:
  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides. Finely grind chocolate wafer cookies in processor. Add melted butter and process until crumbs are evenly moistened. Press crumb mixture firmly onto bottom and 1 inch up sides of prepared pan. Bake crust until set, about 10 minutes. Cool completely.
  • Make milk chocolate fudge sauce:
  • Bring cream just to simmer in medium saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat. Add milk chocolate; let stand 1 minute. Whisk until chocolate is melted and smooth. Whisk in vanilla. Let stand at room temperature until sauce cools and thickens slightly, about 20 minutes.
  • Make marshmallow sauce:
  • Combine marshmallows and cream in large metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of barely simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water). Stir until marshmallows melt and mixture is smooth, about 3 minutes. Remove bowl from over water; stir in vanilla. Let stand until slightly cooled but still pourable, about 10 minutes.
  • Spread 1 quart ice cream evenly in cooled crust. Drop half of milk chocolate sauce by tablespoonfuls over ice cream, spacing apart. Sprinkle half of walnuts over sauce. Drizzle half of marshmallow sauce over walnuts. Freeze until sauces are set, about 10 minutes.
  • Spread 1 quart ice cream evenly in crust. Drop remaining milk chocolate sauce by tablespoonfuls over ice cream. Drizzle remaining marshmallow sauce over, allowing some chocolate sauce to show through. Sprinkle with remaining walnuts. Freeze until pie is firm, about 4 hours. (Can be made 5 days ahead. Cover tightly with foil. Keep frozen.)
  • Cut around pan sides to loosen. Let pie soften slightly at room temperature, about 10 minutes. Remove pan sides.

ROCKY ROAD ICE CREAM PIE



Rocky Road Ice Cream Pie image

Smothering ice cream with loads of toppings is one of my favorite parts of making a sundae! This ice cream pie has a unique cookie base that bakes up crunchy on the edges and chewy in the center, cradling ice cream, toppings and homemade butterscotch sauce. The butterscotch sauce is rich and sweet with a touch of salty and perfectly coats the scooped ice cream.

Provided by Dan Langan

Categories     dessert

Time 50m

Yield One 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 22

Nonstick cooking spray
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons instant coffee, optional
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg, cold
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup semisweet or dark chocolate chips
1/3 cup toasted chopped almonds
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
3 tablespoons heavy cream, half-and-half or milk
1/8 teaspoon fine salt
Splash pure vanilla extract
2 pints ice cream, any flavor you prefer
1/2 cup mini marshmallows
1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds
2 to 3 tablespoons chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set a baking sheet in the center of the oven. Spray the bottom of a standard 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray.
  • For the cookie base: Combine the butter, brown sugar, coffee if using, vanilla, salt, baking powder and baking soda in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Blend on low speed until combined then raise to medium speed and beat until fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape the bowl and paddle clean and add the egg. Mix on low speed until combined then raise to medium speed for a few seconds. The mixture may look broken but that's okay. Add the flour and cocoa and mix on low speed until combined. Scrape the bowl as needed. Add the chocolate chips and nuts and mix on low speed until evenly distributed.
  • Transfer the dough to the prepared pan. Moisten your fingers to press the dough evenly into the pan and up the sides. Smooth out the dough with a spoon if needed.
  • Set the pie pan on the preheated baking sheet and bake until puffed and the outer 1-inch edge of the crust feels set, 14 to 15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack until barely warm. It's okay if the center of the cookie sinks as it cools.
  • For the butterscotch sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until foamy and sizzling. Stir in the sugar, cream, salt and 1 teaspoon water, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil and boil without stirring for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. If it looks like the butter has separated from the sauce, add a few drops of hot water and stir until smooth. Pour into a heatproof measuring cup and let cool while assembling the pie.
  • To assemble: Remove the cookie base from the pan if desired. Fill the center of the cookie crust
  • with scoops of ice cream. Sprinkle with the marshmallows, almonds and chocolate chips and slice. Drizzle butterscotch sauce over each slice and serve (see Cook's Note). Cover any leftovers with plastic wrap and freeze for up to 1 week.
