Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 quart Vanilla ice cream, softened
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Pumpkin pie spice
- 0.5 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1 cup Whipped cream, for garnish
- 0.25 cup Pecans, chopped (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Caramel sauce (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan to form an even crust, extending up the sides.
Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before proceeding.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened vanilla ice cream, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. Stir until fully integrated and smooth.
Pour the pumpkin ice cream mixture into the cooled pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Before serving, garnish with whipped cream, chopped pecans, and a drizzle of caramel sauce if desired.
Slice and serve immediately for a creamy, spiced dessert!
