Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie

I had kids in mind when I came up with this dessert, but as with many things targeted to little ones, grown-ups wound up loving it, too. I found myself watching that the kids only had one slice because I didn’t want their bellies to hurt. Then, I’d sneak a second slice for myself when they weren’t looking. Hey, I have a bigger mouth; I need more ice cream, right?

A combo of chocolate and vanilla ice cream makes a “black-and-white” ice cream pie. Of course, you can also make this recipe with non-dairy ice cream.

Plan ahead: this pie needs some freezer time, so make it the day before and freeze. Take it out an hour before serving to make it easy to slice.
