It is hot here. Too hot to turn the oven on and bake a cake for Rob's birthday so I made him an ice cream pie. Chocolate peanut butter pie with a cookie crust to be exact. It didn't take many ingredients and was pretty easy to make.
I started with a box of Late July Vanilla Bean with Green Tea sandwich cookies (they are better than Oreos in my book). I whirled them in the food processor with a couple tablespoons of melted butter. I pressed that into a pie plate and put in the freezer to set.
In the Kitchen Aid bowl I mixed softened chocolate ice cream with cut up peanut butter cups. I then poured that into the prepared cookie crust. I then put it in the freezer for a couple hours to firm up. Later I melted some chocolate chips in the microwave and put it in a plastic sandwich bag. I cut the corner off the baggie and drizzled the melted chocolate on top of the pie.
Done! I put it back in the freezer until after supper. It was great! Everyone loved it.
