Things You'll Need

• 2 pints of coffee ice cream
• 1 jar of hot fudge sauce
• Store-bought chocolate cookie crust
• Chocolate covered espresso beans
• Whipped topping
• Piping bag with star tip
• Microwave

Instructions

1. Allow the ice cream to soften on the counter. In the meantime, spread half a jar of hot fudge sauce into the bottom of the cookie crust.

2. Once the ice cream is softened, carefully spread it into the cookie crust. Immediately place it into the freezer.

3. Once the pie is frozen, place the whipped topping into the piping bag and put six stars of whipped cream along the edge of the pie and one large star in the center. Place the pie back into the freezer until ready to serve.

4. Once you are ready to serve, take the pie from the freezer and allow it to thaw slightly. Then decorate it with the chocolate covered espresso beans and the rest of the hot fudge sauce that has been slightly warmed in the microwave. Cut and serve.

Tips & Warnings

• If you are short on time, you can soften the ice cream in the microwave.

• You could also dust the pie with espresso or cocoa powder, instead of using the chocolate covered espresso beans.

• Do not overheat the hot fudge sauce or it will melt your pie too quickly. Only warm it enough to where it can be drizzled across the pie.
