Tips
Soften ice cream while crust freezes for easier spreading.
Drizzle sauces just before serving to prevent them from freezing solid into the pie.
Good to Know
Cover and freeze for up to 1 week in the springform pan.
Prepare and freeze up to 1 week ahead. Thaw for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Remove side rim of springform pan after thawing slightly. Serve chilled.
Common Mistakes
Do not skip softening ice cream to avoid difficulty spreading it evenly over crust.
Do not freeze sauce drizzle immediately if you prefer them to remain sauce-like rather than frozen solid.
