Amish Pie
"From an old handwritten card. This recipe originally called for fresh ice cream straight out of the ice cream churn. I took this to be at that time when the ice cream is still soft before you set it in the freezer to harden. Anyway if you want to follow the recipe as written substitute homemade ice cream in here and use it straight from the churn. Cooking time is freezing time."

This was really good and made me long for fall to finally arrive. I made it according to directions but I had way more than what would fit one pre-made pie crust. I'm pretty sure I could of gotten 3 pies out of it. The rest I re-froze and we enjoyed at a pumpkin flavored ice cream! Thanks..I'll be making this one again for sure since it's so darn easy! -
For many years my mother made this for the family at Thanksgiving. It is very rich, quite tasty, and fulfills the pumpkin taste during anytime of the year. You can use any vanilla ice cream, but set it out on the counter at least 15 minutes prior to incorporation into the other ingredients. The "cheap" brands work just as well as the expensive ones, as you covering up the vanilla taste with the spices. A suggestion in making this is to put it in a square or rectangular pan. It makes it so easy to cut into squares and serve.

Married mother of twins. I very seldom ever use recipes as they are written, always modifying and adjusting them. Many times I will take three or four different recipes and come up with a new recipe based on those.
