Important Ingredients for Any Ice Cream Pie Recipe
9-inch pie plate: This is essential for shaping and serving your pie. You can usually find these near the baking supplies or kitchenware section of the store.
Food processor or blender (optional): While you can crush the cookies by hand, using a food processor or blender will save you time and effort.

Rubber spatula: This will be your best friend for spreading the ice cream filling evenly into the crust. It’s also handy for scraping every last bit of deliciousness out of the bowl.
Cool Whip: If you aren’t a fan, make homemade whipped cream and chill in the freezer for 30 minutes only, the whipped cream will set but not freeze.
This is a dessert that’s as easy as it is delicious. This no-fuss dessert is perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a casual family gathering or a special celebration.
