Candy Bar Cream Pie Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Crush the candy bars; fold 1 cup into cream cheese mixture. Spoon into crust. Sprinkle with remaining candy bar crumbs. Refrigerate for 2-4 hours before slicing.

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the graham crackers in a large plastic zipper bag and seal it. Smash the crackers with a rolling pin until they're crushed into fine crumbs. (Or you can use a food processor!) Move the crumbs to a large bowl, then pour in the melted butter and stir them to combine. Press the crumbs into a pie plate slowly packing them so they're firm. Bake the crust for 5 minutes, then let it cool completely.
• Make the filling: In a large bowl, stir the ice cream until it's smooth but still firm and somewhat frozen. Add the pecans and candies and stir until it's all combined.
• Pour the mixture into the cooled crust and smooth the surface, then cover the pie and place it in the freezer to harden, 2 to 3 hours minimum. (Psst: Make it up to a week in advance! It keeps well in the freezer if it's covered tightly.)
• Use a warm knife to cut neat slices, then drizzle with your favorite jarred caramel or hot fudge sauce.
• Change Things Up!
• Make a chocolate mint version: Use mint chocolate chip ice cream and mix in chopped peppermint patties. Pour it into a chocolate cookie crust.
• Use any combination of ice cream flavor and candy/nut you'd like!

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Crush the graham crackers in a food processor or resealable plastic bag. Pour the crumbs into a bowl and stir in the melted butter. Press into a pie pan and bake until golden and set, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
• For the filling: Remove the ice cream from the freezer and allow to soften slightly. Mix in the pecans, peanut butter cups and peanut butter crunch candy bars and pour the ice cream mixture into the crust. Cover with foil and freeze until very hard, 1 to 2 hours.
• For the caramel sauce: Mix the brown sugar, half-and-half, butter and salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, while whisking gently, until thicker, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the vanilla and cook another minute to thicken further. Pour the sauce into a jar and refrigerate until cold.
• To serve, cut slices of the pie and serve on individual plates with cold caramel sauce spooned over the top and sprinkled with pecans. Serve with extra caramel sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Cut candy bars in half lengthwise, then into 1/4 inch pieces. Place candy pieces over bottom of pie crust.
• In a small bowl, combine sugar and cream cheese; beat until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add sour cream and peanut butter; beat until mixture is smooth. Pour filling over candy pieces.
• Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 30 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese and 2 tablespoon of the milk and vanilla in a bowl with wire whisk until smooth.
• Gently Stir in 2 cups Cool Whip.

• Pour remaining milk in a large bowl add puddings and mix until smooth, should be really thick.
• Spoon 1 1/2 cup of pudding into crust and spread evenly.
• Stir in 1/2cup of the Cool Whip into remaining pudding and whip to incorporate. fold in another 1/4 c cool whip to make fluffy.
