How I created this Caramel Toffee Ice Cream Pie Recipe
It’s no surprise I love ice cream. And while this pie isn’t technically ice cream it is frozen and creamy so we call it Ice Cream pie. This frozen dessert is SUPER easy to make, and it’s always a huge hit at parties.
It just needs to be made the day before so it has time to set. I’ve been making it since I was a young girl, and now my kid’s are making it. Simple enough for kids to make, but something everyone enjoys eating.
It uses ingredients you can buy or make, like a graham cracker crust, caramel syrup, fresh whipped cream (or cool whip if you prefer) and toffee bits. SO it can be super simple or a bit more complicated depending on how much you make from scratch.
Personally I make it all from scratch… I always have caramel sauce on hand so it whips up quickly but honestly it tastes just as good with the store bought stuff (IF you buy the thick quality stuff, not the thin runny stuff), so that’s what my kid’s tend to make it with.
You can pour the filling into the pie crust as soon as it’s done mixing, while it’s a little runny, BUT if you wait just a few mins the pudding starts to set and it gets thick. It’s easier to intersperse the toffee bits evenly at this point so that’s what I do.
So there you go! You can change the sauce, pudding and mix in’s, I have a ton of other flavor combo’s we like to make, but this one is a classic. What is your favorite cold dessert you like to make in the summer? What is your favorite pudding flavor?

Tips to Make the Perfect Caramel Toffee Ice Cream Pie
– For the crust – you can go with a store bought crust, just remember they are usually 8 1/2 inches so you’ll probably have extra filling
– I like to make my own caramel sauce – it only takes a few mins. Make sure you use a thermometer so the sauce hits the right temperature – otherwise it could be too thin or too thick.
– Also remember to adjust for your altitude – Being at 4500 ft altitude I adjust my recipes by 20 degrees!
– Water boils at sea level at 212, for me at 192 – so a 20 degree difference. What does water boil at where you live?
– If you are going with a store bought sauce make sure you get a high quality thick sauce, not something super runny. You should have to heat it slightly to make it pour-able.
– It only takes about 3 mins to make fresh whipped cream, which I feels makes a huge difference in flavor. If you sub out for whipped cream take away the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in the recipe.
– You can use any pudding flavor you want, I’ve used vanilla, white chocolate and cheesecake with this pie. For a variation one of my favorites is pistachio (white fudge sauce and mini chocolate chips)
