I recently bought some French vanilla ice cream to use with a Dutch Apple Pie. Since we don't like plain vanilla ice cream, I needed a way to use the leftovers. Everyone loves peanut butter and chocolate, so this frozen silky treat was born.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Wow, this no-bake dessert is the ultimate mash-up of peanut butter and chocolate. Cool and creamy, this ice cream pie has crunchy nuts throughout. It'll satisfy any sweet and salty craving. The perfect, easy-to-make summer dessert on a hot day.
