Instructions

For the crust:

Preheat the oven to 350°. Crush the graham crackers in a food processor or resealable plastic bag. Stir in the melted butter and press into a pie plate. Bake until set, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.

For the filling:

Allow the ice cream to soften a bit. Scoop into a bowl and with a rubber spatula fold in pieces of chopped candy and nuts. Once mixed, pour the ice cream mixture into the crust. Cover with foil and freeze until very hard, about 2 hours.

To serve:

Slice the pie and garnish with chopped nuts, whipping cream, and fudge sauce.

Notes

Candy: Here are a few chocolate candy Ideas we enjoy: Reese's peanut butter cups, Butterfinger, chocolate bars, Snickers, Kit Kat, and even Oreo cookies. You will need about 1 king-size bar.
How about Fruit? I love to make this ice cream pie with fresh berries and fruit as well. Simply replace the candy with chopped berries or fruit, garnish with whipping cream, and add nuts if you like.
