Best Waffle Cone Ice Cream Pie Recipes

WAFFLE CONE ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using an ice cream scoop, remove three large scoops ice cream to a plate. Place the plate in the freezer and return the gallon to the freezer.
• Add 9 of the waffle cones to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the cones become a mix of mostly crumbs with a few larger chunks here and there. Pulse in the melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch nonstick springform pan. Bake for 5 minutes. Let cool completely, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the rest of the ice cream from the freezer to start to soften it a little bit.
• Meanwhile, put the white chocolate and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15-second increments until melted and smooth. (This time will vary based on your microwave.) Working one at a time, dip the top quarter of the 3 remaining waffle cones in the white chocolate mixture, then sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons rainbow sprinkles. Place the cones onto champagne flutes, decorated-side down, to set. (You can also set them on wax paper to set.)
• Add the remaining softened ice cream to the crust and spread to smooth. Sprinkle the chopped strawberries over the top and gently press into the ice cream. Using a spoon, drizzle the top with the remaining white chocolate mixture. Finish with the remaining tablespoon sprinkles.
• Remove the scoops of ice cream from the freezer and place them in the center of the pie. Top each scoop with one inverted decorated ice cream cone; be sure to place them on an angle, so they are not sitting vertically on the ice cream scoops. Transfer the pie to the freezer and let set for at least 2 hours.
• When ready to serve, run a sharp knife around the edge of the pie to help release it from the springform pan. Remove the pie from the pan, slice and serve drizzled with the strawberry sauce.

WAFFLE CONE ICE CREAM SUNDAE PIE

Steps:

• Place 10 waffle cones in a large resealable bag. Crush the cones into large pieces (about 1/2 inch). Reserve 2/3 cup for garnish. Place the remaining crushed cones into a large bowl. Add 1 cup hardening chocolate sauce and toss to coat. Place into a 9-inch pie dish and press to form a crust. Place in the freezer to set, about 20 minutes.
• Spread the softened ice cream into the pie crust, being sure to make the top as smooth as possible. Press the remaining 2/3 cup crushed waffle cone around the edge of the pie to form a crust rim. Place in the freezer until the ice cream firms up, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla in a large, chilled metal bowl until it holds medium-stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• To serve, spread 1/3 cup of the hardening chocolate sauce over the ice cream. Top with the whipped cream. Drizzle with the caramel sauce and hot fudge sauce. Garnish with the peanuts, sprinkles and cherries. Place the remaining waffle cone upside-down in the center of the pie and serve.

CHOCOLATE, CARAMEL AND WAFFLE CONE ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Spray the inside of a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray. Place a layer of plastic wrap over the pie plate and press smoothly to stick.
• Scatter the smaller waffle pieces to cover the bottom of the pie plate and place the larger shards against the sides in an uneven mosaic-like pattern. Be artistic; pointy pieces of waffle cone will create a more dynamic border.
• Put the chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and melt in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between each round, until the chocolate is melted. Drizzle the chocolate over the crust in a decorative pattern. Chill until set, about 10 minutes.
• Spread the softened ice cream over the chocolate layer, smoothing the top. Wrap with plastic and place in the freezer until set, at least 2 hours.
• Drop the dulce de leche in small blobs around the top of the pie; this will make it easier to spread. Spread as evenly as you can to the edges of the crust. (Don't worry if there are small gaps.) Return the pie to the freezer to let the dulce de leche set, about 30 minutes.
• Bring the pie to room temperature for about 10 minutes before eating. Sprinkle the toasted peanuts over the top of the pie and slice with a warmed knife.
