Time 1h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

50 vanilla wafer cookies
½ cup walnuts
¼ cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
¾ cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
4 tablespoons shortening
.66 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • In a blender or food processor, blend the vanilla wafer cookies and walnuts into fine crumbs. Transfer to a 9 inch pie pan. Mix in the butter and maple syrup. Using a fork, press firmly and evenly onto the bottom and sides of the pie pan to create a crust. Chill 10 minutes in the freezer.
  • In a large bowl, blend the vanilla ice cream, pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Spoon into the pie crust. Smooth top with a spatula. Chill 1 hour in the freezer, or until firm.
  • Before serving pie, place the heavy cream and granulated sugar in a small bowl. Mix with an electric mixer on high speed until peaks form. Spoon into a pastry bag with a star tip and pipe around the edge of the pie.
  • In a small saucepan over low heat, melt shortening and chocolate chips, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Transfer to a small plastic container and chill in the freezer 30 minutes, or until firm.
  • Remove chocolate from container. Using a vegetable peeler or cheese slicer, scrape the chocolate to form small curls. Use the curls to decorate the pie
