Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, chopped pecans, and melted butter. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly moistened.

  3. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use the back of a spoon to firmly press the crumbs into place.

  4. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until it is set and lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

  5. Once the crust has cooled, spread the softened butter pecan ice cream evenly over the crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.

  6. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer to set for at least 4 hours or until firm.

  7. Before serving, spread the whipped cream over the frozen pie. Drizzle the caramel sauce on top of the whipped cream.

  8. Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the caramel sauce for a crunchy garnish.

  9. Slice the Butter Pecan Ice Cream Pie into wedges and serve immediately.
