Easy Ice Cream Pie Recipe with Fudge Topping (gluten-free!)
This ice cream pie is easy to make, and you can customize it according to what you like. Since you can choose nearly any ice cream flavors you want, it’s completely adaptable to the occasion and season, perfect for everything from the Fourth of July to Valentine’s Day, to Christmas to your kid’s birthday.A few years ago I made the peppermint bark/chocolate version for Christmas (garnished with some crushed candy canes) and it fueled the most epic dance party my family has ever seen. Just saying.
