Apple pie is my specialty. Recently, I found a recipe for ice cream pie, and naturally I decided to mix the two. I’ve only just had the idea, so I’m still trying to figure out the steps in which it would come out best. I’ll be posting the process here, in case of sucess, so I could repeat it in the future. I’ll need it for Friday, my boyfriend invited me over to his house for dinner and I’d like to impress his family with my limited awesome cooking skills. I’m making 3 right now to test. So let’s do this!
SUGAR CONE CRUST:
Ingredients
- 1½ cups sugar cone crumbs (from about 10 small cones)
- 8 Tablespoons melted butter
Process
- For sugar cone crust:Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl mix together the crumbs and melted butter. Stir well with a fork. Grease a 9 or 10″ springform pan.
- Press the crumbs onto the bottom and about and 1 to 1½” up the side. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden.
- Remove from oven and place on a cooling rack. Let cool completely.
Let the crust bake and take it out after 10-15 minutes. When it’s out of the oven, let it cool, then place in it the freezer for 2 hours, or overnight. When you after the two hours are over, begin to prepare your apples. Leave the crust in the freezer until ready for use.
APPLES
Ingredients
- Cubed apples (6-8)
- Ground cinnamon 1 tsb
- Brown sugar 1/3 cups
- White sugar 1/3 cups
- Flour 3 tbsp
Process
In a large bowl, take all the ingredients and mix. Leave the apples sitting, and take your vanilla ice cream and mix it with a wooden spoon until soft and spreadable.
Now that the apples are ready and the ice cream is spreadable, take the crust out. Begin to pour the ice cream all over, creating a thick solid layer (I made mine in cupcake form but it would have been a lot easier if it was one big pan). After the ice cream is done, start placing the apples evenly across the surface. Then place it back in the freezer.
CRUMB TOPPING
Ingredients
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- ⅓ cup white sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup flour
Process
In a small bowl combine all the ingredients for the crumb topping until mixed well, using a fork.
When finished, sprinkle the crumb topping over the apples and… finished! You now hopefully have beautiful frankenstiend like ice cream cake-ish thing with apple pie and a muffin topping… hope it tastes good and is veeerrry sweet.
