Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie with Maple Syrup Drizzle
Photo by Sue York/ladailypost.comMakes two large pies.
2 large graham cracker pie crusts
1 quart of vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
2 ½ cups of pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix)
2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups of heavy whipping cream, sweetened
REAL maple syrup
Get the two crusts ready for the filling (take them out of the packaging.) If you are making your own crusts make sure they are cooled and ready. Before starting prepare the room in the freezer for the pies to go. It must be a flat area.

Take the pies out of the freezer and thaw 10 minutes before cutting. Just as you serve the pieces of pie, top with whipped cream and drizzle with maple syrup.
