Mini Italian Mud Pies Recipes

Steps:

• Set 8 cookies on a plate. Top with 8 small scoops coffee ice cream and set another cookie in place on top of each scoop. Lightly press down to set mini sandwiches. Serve or individually wrap and freeze.

Steps:

• Freeze the crust until firm, about 30 minutes. Place half the coffee ice cream into a bowl, and let it stand about 10 minutes to soften. Return remaining ice cream to the freezer. Mix softened ice cream with the mini chocolate chips. Spread the ice cream and chips in an even layer over the frozen crust. Cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for 2 hours.
• Heat the topping in the microwave on low until warm and easy to pour, 30 seconds to 1 minute (do not let the sauce get very hot). Pour into a bowl. Set aside 2 tablespoons cookie crumbs for garnish; stir remaining cookie crumbs into the fudge topping. Remove the pie from the freezer, and layer the cookie crumbs and fudge topping mixture over the ice cream with chips. Cover with plastic wrap, and return to freezer for 2 hours.
• Take the remaining frozen coffee ice cream out of the freezer, and allow to stand for about 10 minutes to soften. Layer the ice cream over the layer of cookie crumbs and fudge topping. Cover with plastic wrap, and return to freezer for 2 more hours.
• Remove pie, and frost the top of the pie with the whipped topping. Top with the reserved cookie crumbs. Cover with plastic wrap, and return to freezer for 2 more hours to freeze the whipped topping layer. Cut the pie into serving pieces, and drizzle each serving with about 1 tablespoon of the chocolate syrup.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan bring milk, butter, sugar, and cocoa to a boil while stirring constantly. Boil for about 1 1/2 minutes. Add vanilla and peanut butter and stir well. Stir in oatmeal. Drop by any size onto waxed paper. Let cool and dry in a warm, dry place.

Steps:

• Toast pecans over moderate heat then reserve. Place pie shells on a small tray. Soften ice cream in microwave on high for 20 seconds. Fill pie shells with ice cream, mounding each shell up. Smooth edges of the ice cream pies and freeze 20 minutes to set. Remove lid of the caramel sauce and warm it, 1 minute on high. Top pies with caramel sauce and lots of toasted pecans and whipped cream.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Grease bottom and side of round pan, 8x1 1/2 inches, or pie plate, 9x1 1/4 inches. Stir together granulated sugar, butter, flour, cocoa, vanilla, salt and eggs in medium bowl. Stir in nuts. Pour into pan.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until edge appears dry and toothpick inserted halfway between center and edge comes out clean (center will be moist). Immediately prick holes in pie with toothpick. Spread 1/4 cup fudge sauce over top. Cool completely,about 1 hour.
• Beat whipping cream and powdered sugar in chilled medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until stiff. Spread over fudge sauce. Drizzle with 2 to 3 tablespoons fudge sauce. Garnish with additional nuts. Cover and refrigerate any remaining pie.
