Chocolate Caramel Banana Ice Cream Pie Recipes

CHOCOLATE-CARAMEL BANANA ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pulse the graham crackers, butter, sugar and vanilla in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Press evenly into the bottom and up the side of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake until firm, about 15 minutes; let cool completely.
• Make the filling: Put the chocolate and 1/4 cup ice cream in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until the mixture is almost melted; whisk until smooth. Beat the remaining ice cream in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy but not melted, about 3 minutes; beat in the chocolate mixture. Freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, arrange the banana slices in the pie crust. Spread the dulce de leche over the bananas and freeze until cold, about 30 minutes. Scoop the ice cream over the bananas and dulce de leche and smooth with a rubber spatula. Freeze until very firm, 4 hours.
• Make the glaze: Bring the heavy cream to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat. Remove from the heat and whisk in the chocolate and corn syrup until melted and smooth. Let cool, whisking occasionally, until spreadable, about 15 minutes. Slowly pour the glaze over the ice cream; return to the freezer until set. Let the pie soften 10 minutes at room temperature before slicing.

Steps:

• Make shell:
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Into a food processor crumble graham crackers and grind to fine crumbs (you should have about 1 1/3 cups crumbs). Add walnuts, sugar, butter, and salt and pulse motor until nuts are finely chopped. Press crumb mixture evenly onto bottom and side of a glass 10- by 2-inch deep dish pie plate and bake in middle of oven 8 minutes. Cool shell in plate on rack.
• In a dry heavy 3-quart saucepan cook granulated sugar over moderate heat, stirring with fork, until melted and cook without stirring, swirling pan, until a golden caramel. Add corn syrup and boil over moderate heat, stirring until combined well. Add 2/3 cup cream (caramel will steam and harden) and boil, stirring occasionally, until a candy thermometer registers 210°F. Stir cornstarch mixture and stir into caramel. Boil caramel, stirring constantly, 1 minute and remove pan from heat. When caramel stops bubbling, stir in vanilla and pour into shell. Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over hot caramel and cool completely. Pie may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
• Peel bananas and slice thin. Arrange bananas evenly over chocolate layer. In a bowl beat remaining cup cream until thickened and beat in confectioners' sugar. Beat cream until it holds stiff peaks and spread over bananas.

CHOCOLATE BANANA ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Chocolate Fudge Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the coffee, sugar and cocoa. Whisk in the corn syrup until all the sugar crystals are dissolved and the mixture is completely smooth. Place the chocolate and butter in a large, dry bowl or in the top of a double boiler set over barely simmering water. When the chocolate has melted, whisk in the coffee-cocoa mixture until smooth and blended. The sauce is best if left to ripen for a full day before serving. Store in a sealed container. This sauce will keep for 3 weeks in the refrigerator or 3 months in the freezer.
• Vanilla Ice Cream: Split the vanilla bean lengthwise. Scrape out the seeds. Put the seeds, pod halves, milk, heavy cream, and 1/4 cup of the brown sugar in a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan. Bring just to the simmering point over low heat (it will wriggle in the pot). In the meantime, combine the remaining 3/4 cup brown sugar, egg yolks, and vanilla extract in a large bowl and whisk until just blended. While gently whisking the yolks, drizzle the hot cream mixture into them so that they are gradually warmed up. Return everything to the saucepan and cook while stirring with a wooden spoon. Make sure that you are constantly scraping the spoon across the bottom of the pan so the custard does not scorch. The custard is done when it has thickened slightly and can evenly coat the back of the spoon. Do not let it come to a boil. Strain the custard through a fine sieve. Press out all the liquid in the vanilla beans and nestle the container holding the custard into a large bowl of ice. Let cool, stirring occasionally. Transfer the custard to an ice cream machine and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Put the finished ice cream in a storage container and freeze until firm.
• Make sure the fudge sauce has been in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to thicken. If the ice cream is very hard, let it soften in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes. Shmoosh and spread the fudge sauce in ribbons through the ice cream. Take care not to let the sauce blend into the ice cream. Refreeze until hard.
• Chocolate Wafer Crust: Coat a 9-inch pie pan with 2 teaspoons of the butter. In a food processor, chop the chocolate wafers into fine crumbs. Transfer to a small bowl and mix in the rest of the melted butter. Pat the mixture over the bottom and sides of the pan. Freeze for at least 30 minutes.
• Chocolate-Dipped Frozen Banana Bonbons: Melt the chocolate in a completely dry bowl or in the top of a double boiler set over barely simmering water. Pierce each banana chunk with a fork. Dunk first into chocolate to coat, then into the peanuts or coconut. Set on waxed paper-lined cookie sheet, and freeze for 2 hours or overnight. For maximum flavor, let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
• Fill the crust with the vanilla fudge ice cream, top with bonbons and serve.
