Make this easy, creamy frozen dessert using a simple Oreo crust. This no bake ice cream pie recipe is perfect for summer parties or any time you need a make ahead dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups crushed Oreo cookies
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1.5 quarts (about 6 cups) store-bought ice cream (your favorite flavor, softened slightly)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional toppings: Chocolate fudge sauce, chopped peanuts, cherries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Combine the crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter in a medium bowl. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
  2. Freeze the crust: Place the pie plate in the freezer for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the filling.
  3. Assemble the pie: Remove the crust from the freezer. Spread the slightly softened ice cream evenly over the frozen crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  4. Refreeze: Return the pie to the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.
  5. Make the topping: In a separate bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  6. Top and serve: Spread or pipe the whipped cream topping over the frozen ice cream layer. Add your desired toppings like fudge sauce or peanuts.
  7. Final freeze: Freeze the finished ice cream pie for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving. Slice with a sharp, warm knife for clean cuts.

Notes

  • For a customizable ice cream pie, use two different flavors of softened ice cream, layering them alternately for a striped effect.
  • If you want a peanut butter ice cream pie, mix 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter into the softened ice cream before spreading it into the crust.
  • To easily remove the pie from the plate for serving, line the pie plate with plastic wrap before pressing in the crust.
