Oh so hot and humid!

On this especially hot and humid day I thought it only appropriate to make a cold dessert. Here's what I opted for. I've yet to taste the dish in it's complete form as I only tasted bits of it along the making process.

Frozen Coffee Pie
  • 1 pre-made Oreo cookie pie crust
  • 1/2 gallon coffee ice cream, softened (on counter for 15 to 20 minutes)
  • 6 tablespoons coffee-flavored liqueur, divided (recommended: Kahlua)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons hot fudge sauce

Directions

Combine softened ice cream and 5 tablespoons coffee-flavored liqueur using a stand mixer or hand mixer until creamy. Fill pie crust with ice cream mixture, cover with plastic wrap and place in freezer for 3 to 4 hours.

Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Top frozen pie with whipped cream. Refreeze for 1 hour.

Combine remaining tablespoon of coffee-flavored liqueur with hot fudge sauce, drizzle over top of pie and serve.
