What Ingredients are used in Frozen Mudslide Pie?
Frozen Mudslide Cocktail Blend
- Coffee liqueur: I use homemade Coffe Liqueur or Kahlua.
- Irish cream liqueur: I use Baileys of KerryGold Irish Cream
- Vodka: I prefer Absolute or SVEDKA
Chocolate Cookie Crumb Crust
- Chocolate sandwich cookies: I used the original Oreos
- Butter, melted: I use unsalted butter
Mudslide Fudge Sauce
- Sweetened condensed milk: Be sure not to grab Evaporated milk – it’s not the same.
- Semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips [paid link]: I prefer Ghirardelli brand bittersweet chips for this recipe.
- Pure Vanilla Extract [paid link]: I use only pure vanilla extract [paid link] it just has the best flavor.
- Salt: I use fine Kosher salt but table salt may be used in the same ratio.
- Peanuts: I use dry roasted peanuts for the robust peanuty flavor.
Ice Cream Layer
- Vanilla bean ice cream: I use Bryers but you may use your favorite brand.
- Instant coffee: I useNescafé Classico Dark Roast Instant Coffee but you can use your favorite brand.
- Hot water: omitted if coffee ice cream is used.
Whipped Cream
- Heavy cream: I use heavy cream or whipping cream to make the whipped cream. It’s more stable and retains shape longer.
- Sugar: I use a little granulated sugar to taste to sweeten the whipped cream. It can be omitted without substitution.
- Pure Vanilla Extract [paid link]: I use vanilla to flavor the whipped ceam but you could also use almond extract or an equal amount of Irish Cream.
Garnishes
- Reserved crushed peanuts
- Reserved chocolate chips
- Reserved hot fudge sauce
- Reserved cookie crumbs
How Do I Make Frozen Mudslide Pie?
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat an 8-inch springform pan generously with cooking spray or line with a parchment circle.
-
Add the chocolate cookies into a food processor [paid link] and pulse until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse until the crumbs are moist. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie plate [paid link]. Bake until set, about 8 to 10 minutes. Let the crust cool on a wire rack.
-
Whisk [paid link] together the coffee liqueur, Irish cream liqueur, and vodka. Set aside.
-
Mix the instant coffee and the hot water together until dissolved. Set aside.
-
In a pan over medium heat, add the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips. Heat until chocolate is fully melted and smooth, stirring frequently. Whisk [paid link] in 3 tablespoons of the mudslide cocktail blend.
-
Pour 1 cup of hot fudge over the top of the cookie crust. Sprinkle with crushed peanuts.
-
Set the ice cream out at room temperature for 5 -10 minutes. Scoop out the ice cream into a blender [paid link]. Add 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the mudslide cocktail blend and the instant coffee blend. Cover and process in blender [paid link] until it forms a very thick milkshake. Immediately pour it over the cooled crust and transfer the pie to the freezer for 15 minutes.
-
With an electric mixer, beat the cream and sugar together to form whipped cream, about 5-7 minutes. Cover ice cream with whipped cream (I used a pastry bag and a large star tip), if you do not have these items, use a gallon zip-top bag and snip off one corner to form a piping bag or spoon on top.
-
Garnish the pie with some reserved chocolate chips and crushed peanuts. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and return it to the freezer. Freeze until set, at least 6 hours or overnight.
-
Just before serving, drizzle with some extra hot fudge.
Can I Substitute The Vanilla Ice Cream For Coffee Ice Cream?
If coffee flavored ice cream is sold in your area, you may substitute that for the vanilla ice cream and omit the instant coffee and water.
Coffee ice cream is a regional ice cream flavor and is not available in all areas. Here, we’ve made our own coffee ice cream using vanilla ice cream and instant coffee granules.
