Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup(s) crushed gingersnaps (about 24 cookies) |
1/4 cup(s) confectioners' sugar |
1/3 cup(s) butter, melted |
1 cup(s) chocolate ice cream, softened |

1/2 cup(s) heavy whipping cream |
1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract |
1 quart(s) vanilla ice cream, softened |
sweetened whipped cream and maraschino cherry, optional |
Directions:
1. • Combine the gingersnap crumbs, confectioners' sugar and butter; press onto the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-in. pie plate. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Spoon chocolate ice cream into crust; freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
2. • Meanwhile, in a heavy saucepan, melt chocolate chips with cream over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; add vanilla. Cool. Spread half of the chocolate sauce over chocolate ice cream; freeze until set, about 1 hour.
3. • Spoon vanilla ice cream over chocolate sauce; freeze until firm, about 1 hour. Spread remaining chocolate sauce evenly over pie; freeze for 4-6 hours or overnight. Remove from the freezer 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with sweetened whipped cream and a cherry if desired. Yield: 6-8 servings.
