- 1 pre-made chocolate cookie crust - 1 quart coffee ice cream, softened - 1 cup toffee bits (like Heath bar pieces) - 1 cup heavy whipping cream - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract - Chocolate syrup, for drizzling - Extra toffee bits, for garnish You need one pre-made chocolate cookie crust. A quart of coffee ice cream is perfect. Grab one cup of toffee bits, which adds great crunch and flavor. You will also use one cup of heavy whipping cream to make the topping. Two tablespoons of powdered sugar help sweeten the cream. One teaspoon of vanilla extract adds a nice touch. Finally, some chocolate syrup and extra toffee bits finish the pie. If you can't find a chocolate cookie crust, you can use a graham cracker crust instead. You can swap coffee ice cream for any ice cream flavor you like, such as vanilla or mocha. If toffee bits are not available, chopped chocolate bars work well too. For a lighter topping, you can use whipped topping in place of heavy whipping cream. {{ingredient_image_1}} First, grab your pre-made chocolate cookie crust. Place it in a pie dish. Make sure it sits flat on the bottom. This crust will give a rich, sweet base to the pie. No need to bake it. Just set it aside for later. Now, take your softened coffee ice cream. In a large bowl, add the ice cream and 1 cup of toffee bits. Use a spatula to mix them gently. You want to spread the toffee bits all through the ice cream. This adds a nice crunch and rich flavor. Next, pour the coffee toffee ice cream mix into the chocolate cookie crust. Use your spatula to smooth the top. Cover the pie with plastic wrap. Now, place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours. This helps the ice cream set and become firm. When the pie is ready, it's time to make whipped cream. In a clean bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla. Whip until stiff peaks form. This means it will hold its shape. Spread the whipped cream over the pie evenly. Drizzle chocolate syrup over the whipped cream. This adds a sweet touch. Then, sprinkle some extra toffee bits on top for a crunchy finish. Place the pie back in the freezer for 30 more minutes. This helps the toppings set. After that, slice the pie and serve it. Enjoy! To soften ice cream, take it out of the freezer. Place it on the counter for about 10 to 15 minutes. This time helps the ice cream soften just enough for mixing. You want it soft but not melted. If it melts, your pie will be too runny. A little patience goes a long way here. To make perfect whipped cream, start with cold tools. Use a chilled bowl and beaters. Pour in the heavy whipping cream and add powdered sugar. Beat the mixture until you see stiff peaks. This means the cream holds its shape well. Add vanilla extract for extra flavor. Don’t overbeat, or the cream will become grainy. For a great presentation, slice the pie on a chilled plate. Drizzle chocolate syrup around the pie for a fancy touch. Top each slice with extra toffee bits for crunch. You want it to look as good as it tastes! Serve it right away for the best experience. Pro Tips Use Quality Ingredients: Opt for high-quality coffee ice cream and toffee bits for the best flavor in your pie. Soften Ice Cream Gradually: Let your ice cream sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes to soften, making it easier to mix. Chill Your Tools: Chill your mixing bowl and beaters before whipping the cream to achieve better volume and stability. Serve Cold: For the best texture and flavor, ensure the pie is well-frozen before serving, and keep it chilled until ready to enjoy. {{image_2}} You can easily switch the ice cream flavor. Try vanilla, chocolate, or caramel. Each flavor adds a unique twist. Vanilla gives a classic taste, while chocolate adds depth. Caramel brings a rich sweetness. Mix and match flavors to suit your taste. Though chocolate cookie crust works well, you can explore other options. A graham cracker crust adds crunch. An Oreo crust enhances the chocolate flavor. A nut-based crust brings a lovely texture. Each crust changes the pie's overall flavor and feel. Get creative with mix-ins in your ice cream. You can add chopped nuts for crunch. Mini chocolate chips bring extra sweetness. Fresh fruit, like bananas or berries, adds a fresh taste. For toppings, consider whipped cream, extra toffee bits, or a drizzle of caramel. These additions will make your pie truly unique. To keep your Coffee Toffee Ice Cream Pie fresh, cover it well. Use plastic wrap or foil to seal it tightly. This will help keep the pie from picking up odors from the freezer. You can also place it in an airtight container if you like. Store it in the freezer for up to two weeks. After that, the taste may fade. For long-term storage, I suggest you freeze the pie whole. Cut it into slices only when you are ready to serve. This way, each piece stays fresh. Wrap each slice in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer bag. This extra layer helps protect them. Label the bag with the date so you remember when you made it. Freezer burn can ruin the taste of your pie. To prevent this, wrap the pie or slices tightly. Make sure no air can get in. Use heavy-duty foil or freezer paper for best results. Avoid leaving the pie in the freezer for too long. The sooner you eat it, the better it tastes! Yes, you can make this pie ahead of time. It is great for parties or gatherings. Just prepare it, freeze it, and serve it later. This pie tastes even better after a day in the freezer. This dessert lasts about two weeks in the freezer. Make sure to cover it well to keep it fresh. Use plastic wrap or an airtight container to prevent freezer burn. You can make a non-dairy version easily. Use non-dairy coffee ice cream and coconut cream instead of heavy whipping cream. This will keep the flavor while making it dairy-free. Yes, homemade ice cream works great in this recipe. Just make sure it is soft enough to mix with the toffee. This adds a special touch and lets you control the flavors. Feel free to get creative with toppings! Chopped nuts, chocolate shavings, or a sprinkle of sea salt can add nice flavors. You can also use whipped cream or caramel sauce for extra sweetness. This blog shared how to make a delicious Coffee Toffee Ice Cream Pie.
