Ice Cream Sundae Pie

Welp, this is our last pie of pie month! It’s been an interesting month and we’ve learned a lot. Hopefully next year, we’ll be a little more organized and a little more prepared. This pie is a great way to end it. If you love ice cream, then you’ll love this ice cream sundae pie.

Here is what Marguerite had to say:

This one looked pretty complicated at first glance, however the parts where we had issues were somewhat unexpected. Aaron made sure to take the ice cream out of the freezer before we prepared the rest of the recipe, but it was still too firm when we began trying to spread it into a layer on top or the vanilla wafers. Those wafers also wouldn’t stay put when they came into contact with the ice cream. It was also time consuming and boring to wait for the fudge to cool, so it ended up being a little too warm when we started layering. Oh well.

But oh my goodness this pie was to die for! I loved the vanilla wafer crust and the fluffiness of the fudge mixed in with the ice cream. One change we would have made: either keep the layers of fudge and ice cream neater or try to marble them more. This was mostly a side effect of the issues we mentioned having above. This wouldn’t have changed the taste, mostly just made it look a little prettier.

I’m not personally crazy about nuts and would have liked to top this one with either whipped cream or sprinkles, but I’m glad we tried Marguerite’s ice cream sundae pie like the recipe said first. Aaron, of course, loved it. He was sort of expecting these ingredients that are typically found in a fudge sundae to magically transform into something different, but not too surprisingly, it just tasted like a delicious sundae!

We hope you enjoyed pie month! We’ve got some great holiday themed treats planned for December!
