Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 cookies Chocolate sandwich cookies
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.75 cups Heavy cream
- 4 cups Vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
- 1 cup Mini marshmallows
- 0.75 cups Chopped pecans (or almonds)
- 0.5 cups Hot fudge sauce, for garnish
- 1 Whipped cream, for garnish
- 0.25 cups Chocolate shavings or sprinkles, for garnish
Instructions
Start by preparing the crust: Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed. You should have about 2 cups of crumbs.
Transfer the cookie crumbs to a bowl and mix with the melted butter until evenly combined.
Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form an even crust. Place in the freezer to chill while preparing the filling.
Next, make the chocolate layer: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate chips with the heavy cream, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Spread half of the melted chocolate mixture over the chilled pie crust, using a spatula to create an even layer. Return the pie to the freezer for about 10 minutes to set.
Spread the softened vanilla ice cream evenly over the chocolate layer in the crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Sprinkle the mini marshmallows and chopped pecans over the ice cream, pressing them in gently to adhere.
Drizzle the remaining melted chocolate mixture over the top as a decorative layer. Return the pie to the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
When ready to serve, let the pie sit at room temperature for about 5–10 minutes to soften slightly. Garnish with hot fudge sauce, whipped cream, and chocolate shavings or sprinkles before slicing.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Rocky Road Sundae Pie!
