If ice cream cake is your favorite, this decked out ice cream pie takes summery desserts to epic new heights. Created by Jessica from How Sweet It Is, the Coffee Ice Cream Hot Fudge Sundae Pie has a macaroon crust and a cherry on top. For added fun, there is also a generous helping of rainbow sprinkles and whipped cream.
Described as a "gigantic pie-like version of a chocolate vanilla swirl," the coffee ice cream is mixed in with vanilla. The toasted macaroon crust is made with shredded coconut and has a "chewy and gooey and a little bit crunchy" texture. To make the ice cream pie portion, you will need coffee ice cream, vanilla ice cream, cold heavy cream, powdered sugar and hot fudge chocolate syrup (plus other toppings).
