My boys are in love with this ice cream pie recipe–we have been making it for years. Switch the flavor of Oreos or ice cream and you're got a whole new dessert!
Chop the Oreos, and put them in a large bowl. When the boys were little they loved when I put the cookies in a Ziplock bag and let them bang the cookies with their hands or a wooden spoon. 25-30 Oreos
Melt your butter and pour it on top of the crushed cookies. Mix well. 3/4 stick of butter
Add your cookie mixture to the greased pie pan. Use your fingers to press the mixture evenly around the sides and bottom of the pan. Greased pie plate
Stick the crust in the freezer to harden, and pull out the ice cream to thaw a bit. I like to set a kitchen timer for 20 minutes or so. 1 container of cookies and cream ice cream
After 20 minutes the crust should be hard enough and the ice cream should be soft enough.
Scoop the ice cream into the crust, or just dump it all in. I use the back of a large spoon to break up the ice cream and push it into the crust. If the ice cream is not thawed enough, stick the container in the microwave for 15 seconds or so.
Drizzle Magic shell or Hershey’s syrup on top, and freeze for at least 20 minutes before serving. Magic shell for topping
