It's a refreshing twist on traditional pumpkin pie that's sure to wow your taste buds and your guests. So grab a slice (or two), and let's indulge in some autumn bliss!

Ingredients:​

• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 quart (4 cups) pumpkin ice cream, softened
• 1 cup whipped cream or whipped topping
• Ground cinnamon, for garnish

Instructions:​

1. Preheat and Prep:Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Make the Crust:In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated with butter.
3. Press into Pie Dish:Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish, forming a crust. Use the back of a spoon or the bottom of a measuring cup to press it down evenly.
4. Bake the Crust:Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden and set. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
5. Layer the Ice Cream:Once the crust has cooled, spread the softened pumpkin ice cream evenly over the crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
6. Freeze:Place the pie in the freezer and let it freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
7. Top and Serve:Before serving, spread a layer of whipped cream or whipped topping over the frozen pie. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon for an extra touch of flavor and garnish.
8. Slice and Enjoy:Use a sharp knife dipped in warm water to slice the pie into wedges. Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, pumpkin-spiced goodness!

This Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie is perfect for any fall gathering or holiday celebration. Feel free to customize it with your favorite toppings or drizzles. Leftovers (if there are any!) can be stored in the freezer, tightly wrapped, for up to a week. Happy indulging!
