Sinful Ice Cream Pie

"What happens when a cheese cake recipe merges with an ice cream pie recipe? You end up one extremely rich and sinful dessert. The only down fall is it is a bit labor intensive but Oh sooo worth it. The curst is based on ratherbeswimmin's Recipe #140555 **chill time not included**"

directions

  • Crust:

  • Lightly toast almonds and set aside.
  • Butter deep dish pie pan and set aside.
  • Combine almonds, brown sugar, and flour in the container of a food processor; process in a number of long bursts until the nuts are very finely chopped.
  • Add graham cracker crumbs cinnamon and salt pulse a few times to blend.
  • Turn on oven to 350°F.
  • Transfer to a mixing bowl and add in the butter; mix first with a fork, then with your hands to form evenly dampened crumbs.
  • Press evenly into bottom and up sides of pie plate.
  • Bake 7 minutes.
  • Let cool on wire rack; once cool place in freezer till ready to fill.
  • Sauce:

  • In large non reactive skillet over medium heat stir together berries, sugar, cornstarch, salt, lemon zest, lemon juice, nutmeg, cinnamon and water. Continue stirring until the berries come to a full simmer.
  • Simmer for 1 additional minute until the sauce is slightly thickened. I end up with between 3/4 - 1 cup.
  • Cool to room temperature and then place in refrigerator to get good and cold.
  • Filling:

  • Using KitchenAid mixer beat cream cheese till light and fluffy.
  • Switch to paddle attachment and add the softened ice cream mixing just till well blend but not to the point of being a melted mess.
  • Place in freezer just a few minutes to firm up but not set as you still need to be able to work with it.
  • Assemble:

  • Place 3/4 of the cocoa curls in frozen pie crust.
  • Spoon half the cream cheese and ice cream mixture on top of the curls and spread into an even layer.
  • Top with chilled berry sauce.
  • Spoon on the remaining ice cream and very carefully spread to edges. If too soft it will run every were and if too hard the berry sauce will squish out.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and freeze till firmly set. I do 8 hours to overnight.
  • Topping:

  • In a chilled metal bowl beat sour cream, heavy cream and sugar until just thickened to a spreading consistency. Carful not to over or under beat.
  • Spread cream mixture over pie.
  • Garnish with fresh berries and reserved cocoa curls.
  • Hope You Enjoy!
  • I took this to a dinner party were a friend thought I should try maxing in a spring form pan. As of yet have not done that, but am posting to recipe as a reminder.
