{Be sure to visit this page: Ice Cream Pie, Revisited for an even yummier, more decadent version!}
Have you seen the Turtle Ice Cream Pie from Bon Appetit magazine this month? I could not resist! It just looked so beautiful...and it was beautiful in person as well! :)Here's the he said, she said...
I thought...it's good, but kind of plain.
Hubby...pronounced it "in the top 5 of all desserts ever."
I think I would have loved it if the ice cream hadn't been vanilla. The crust was perfect, the caramel sauce was drool-worthy, the chocolate topping was delicious, but it all got underwhelmed by vanilla! IMHO :)
So, I will make this again, but I'm thinking...coffee ice cream, or even chocolate....mmmmmm.....
The makings of the crust...pecans, graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter
Oh...the caramel sauce! The hardest part of the recipe: not eating all of the caramel between layers!!!
Layering the caramel and the ice cream...
...and the pie, waiting the the freezer :)
"Top 5..."? That SAYS a lot!! Hope I can find the magazine...
ReplyDeleteOMG that sure looks good. My mouth is watering. Do you have the recipe? That will make a good summer dessert to.
ReplyDeleteYUMMMM-O! I must find that recipe!!
ReplyDeleteHey Melissa, Treasure Ann & Bea...just click the link at the beginning of the post for Turtle Ice Cream Pie. It will take you straight to the recipe. Let me know of you try it with a different ice cream. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I don't know I'm a vanilla lover all the way. Maybe it was the brand? Either way it sounds & looks decadent and I hadn't seen that issue! I'm gonna have to give it a try.

That looks INCREDIBLE.
ReplyDeleteI bet pecan praline ice cream would be perfect!!
ReplyDeleteHi Bridget, I found the recipe. Thank you and I'll let you know how it turns out. I might fix it for Valentines.
ReplyDeleteYum!!! That looks good!!!.....still dieting! ugh!
ReplyDeleteYum! This looks really good! I would think the more chocolate the better!
ReplyDeleteBridget!! This looks amazing :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should try DQ ice cream it is a little more mellow.

You did such a great job on it. It looks very professional and super yummy.
ReplyDeleteDid you use a good quality vanilla ice cream? One that had actual vanilla beans in it? I'm not sure if you can find it, but it might be better with a vanilla custard ice cream. I just worry if you used a different flavor, it might overwhelm the pie with all the other stuff going on.
I was looking at that recipe when the magazine arrived.
ReplyDeleteI'll wait for warmer weather! But, the caramel apple crisp in the same article is a big possibility for this weekend!
The pie looks awesome, caramel is one of my favorites!!
I could eat that ENTIRE THING. For REAL.
ReplyDeleteI think I would second you on the coffee ice cream... extra yum! I love tiramisu because of the mild coffee flavor. This would probably be a close second!
ReplyDeleteYour blog is certainly not kind to those hoping to diet :)
I bookmarked this one! wowza!
