No recipe image available.This family-pleasing pie has a brownie crust filled with vanilla ice cream topped with fresh sliced peaches and served with a homemade caramel sauce.

Recipe Ingredients:

Crust:
2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons water
2 large eggs, separated
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt

Filling and Topping:
6 cups (1 1/2 quarts) vanilla ice cream (or any flavor)
1 cup peeled and sliced peaches

Caramel Sauce:
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1 tablespoon butter

Cooking Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. For Crust: Heat semisweet chocolate chips and water in a small saucepan over low heat for about 2 minutes, or until melted, stirring constantly.
  3. Beat egg yolks and sugar with an electric mixer on high speed for about 3 minutes, or until thick. Reduce the speed to low and gradually beat in the chocolate mixture and vanilla.
  4. Beat egg whites and salt until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the chocolate mixture until just blended. Spread over the bottom and sides of a greased 9-inch pie plate. Bake about 20 minutes, or until the center is set. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour.
  5. For Filling and Topping: Fill with 6 cups ice cream. Cover and freeze until served. Garnish with 1 cup sliced peaches.
  6. For Caramel Sauce: Combine cream and brown sugar in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 5 minutes, or until caramel colored, stirring once. Add butter and stir until melted and smooth. Serve over the ice cream pie.
