Cherry and Chocolate Ice Cream Pie

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + freezing YIELD: 8 servings.
We took cherry pie to a whole new level as a frozen treat. With a luscious layer of chocolate fudge inside, this is one impressive pie. —Scarlett Elrod, Newnan, Georgia

Ingredients

  • 15 Oreo cookies
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup hot fudge ice cream topping
  • 4 cups vanilla ice cream, softened
  • 3 cups fresh or frozen dark sweet cherries, pitted and quartered, divided
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons thawed cranberry juice concentrate
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon cherry liqueur, optional

Directions

  • 1. Pulse cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Add butter; process until blended. Press mixture onto bottom and up sides of an ungreased 9-in. pie plate. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Carefully spread hot fudge topping over bottom of crust. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • 2. Combine ice cream and 1 cup cherries; spread over hot fudge. Freeze until firm, about 8 hours.
  • 3. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine water, sugar, cranberry juice concentrate and cornstarch; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Stir in remaining cherries. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until thickened and cherries are soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; if desired, stir in liqueur. Cool completely.
  • 4. Remove pie from freezer 10 minutes before cutting. Serve with sauce.
