Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Crust:
1 sleeve (110 g) Ritz crackers or other cracker of your choice
⅓ cup (45 g) raw peanuts or other nut or seed, finely chopped
⅓ cup (67 g; packed) light or dark brown sugar
½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
Filling and assembly:
3 large eggs
½ cup (100 g; packed) light or dark brown sugar
½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
1 tsp. vanilla extract
½ cup (128 g) natural peanut butter or other natural nut or seed butter
1½ cups heavy cream
⅓ cup (100 g) grape jelly (preferably Bonne Maman) or other jelly, jam, or compote

Steps:

  • Crust:
  • Preheat oven to 275°F. Place crackers in a deep pie dish (a shallower one will work but you may have some filling left over) and gently crush with your hands until you have a mix of dime-size pieces, small crumbs, and everything in between. Add peanuts, brown sugar, and salt and toss to combine. Drizzle in butter and toss to evenly coat. Using your hands and the bottom of a measuring cup, press firmly and evenly into bottom and up sides of dish. (Mixture will look and feel crumbly, but it will hold together when baked.) Bake crust until a shade darker, 20-25 minutes. Let cool.
  • Do Ahead: Crust can be baked 3 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature, or freeze up to 1 month.
  • Filling and assembly:
  • Pour water into a medium saucepan to come 1½" up the sides and bring to a bare simmer over medium-low heat. Whisk eggs, brown sugar, and salt in a large heatproof bowl just to combine (or use the bowl of a stand mixer if you've got one). Set over saucepan (bowl should not touch water) and heat egg mixture, stirring constantly with a heatproof rubber spatula, until sugar dissolves, about 4 minutes (mixture will no longer feel gritty when rubbed between your fingers). If you are concerned about undercooked eggs, heat mixture longer, still stirring constantly, until an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F, about 3 minutes more. Remove bowl from heat and add vanilla to egg mixture. Using an electric mixer, beat on high speed until thick and pale and doubled in volume, about 10 minutes. (Or, if using a stand mixer, beat with the whisk attachment, 6-8 minutes.)
  • Using spatula, mix peanut butter in another large bowl to loosen up and smooth out. Stir one third of egg mixture into peanut butter to lighten, then gently fold in half of remaining egg mixture, running spatula down sides and along bottom of bowl, then lifting up through center and over top while rotating bowl, until just combined. Repeat with remaining egg mixture (it will lose a lot of volume, and that's okay).
  • Starting on low speed and gradually increasing to medium-high, beat cream in the same bowl you used for egg mixture (no need to wash) until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Gently fold into peanut butter mixture and scrape into crust. Dollop jelly all over; swirl with a butter knife. (For more defined swirls, freeze pie 30 minutes before adding jelly.) Freeze at least 8 hours before serving.
  • To slice, run a chef's knife under hot water to warm up the blade, then wipe to clean and dry between slices. Use an offset spatula or fork to loosen slices from dish. If pie is frozen very hard, you may need to let it temper in the fridge 30 minutes before serving.
  • Do Ahead: Pie can be made 2 weeks ahead. Wrap tightly and freeze.

SALTY PEANUT-PRETZEL ICE CREAM CAKE



Salty Peanut-Pretzel Ice Cream Cake image

Grab a couple quarts of your favorite vanilla ice cream, crush up some peanuts and pretzels, and invite the neighborhood over for this sweet, salty, satisfying summer treat. For the most robust peanut flavor, use well-stirred natural, unsweetened peanut butter. You can also use a sweetened variety, if that's what you have on hand, but bear in mind that the ice cream and honey lend this cake enough sweetness. The savory dry-roasted peanuts add a wonderful depth of flavor, but make sure to look for a brand without onion or garlic powder listed among the ingredients.

Time 40m

Yield One 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups/88 grams mini pretzels
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons/42 grams salted peanuts (preferably dry roasted)
2 tablespoons/25 grams light brown sugar
4 tablespoons/57 grams unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 quarts/1.9 liters high-quality vanilla ice cream
3/4 cup/205 grams natural, unsweetened peanut butter, well stirred
2 tablespoons honey
1 cup/240 milliliters heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Add pretzels, 1/4 cup peanuts and brown sugar to the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Pulse until the mixture resembles very coarse sand with a few larger pieces remaining. Pulse in the butter until well combined.
  • Press about 3/4 cup of the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Spread the remaining mixture in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake crust and crumbs until light golden and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes. The crust may take a bit longer to brown (another 2 to 3 minutes). Set pans on a rack to cool completely.
  • When the crust and crumbs are cool, transfer 1 quart of the ice cream to a large bowl and use a wooden spoon to break it into a few pieces. Let the ice cream sit at room temperature until slightly softened, about 10 minutes. Drizzle half the peanut butter over the top and gently fold it into the ice cream, so some ribbons of peanut butter remain.
  • Scoop the ice cream mixture onto the cooled crust and use an offset spatula to gently spread it to the edges of the pan, being careful not to pull the crust away from the bottom of the pan. Drizzle the top of the ice cream with 1 tablespoon of honey and use the tip of a knife or wooden skewer to swirl it as best you can into the surface of the ice cream. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup of the peanut-pretzel crumbs from the baking sheet over the top and gently press them into the ice cream. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and place the cake in the freezer.
  • After about an hour, soften the second quart of ice cream, and mix the remaining half of the peanut butter into it, and spread as before. Drizzle the remaining honey over the top and swirl it into the surface of the ice cream. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and return it to the freezer to chill the cake for at least 4 hours before serving, and up to overnight.
  • Just before serving, whip the cream to soft peaks, and stir the remaining whole peanuts into the remaining peanut-pretzel crumbs.
  • To unmold the cake, run a thin knife or offset spatula under hot water to warm it, and slide it around the edges of the cake. Remove the outer ring of the springform pan, dollop the top of the cake with whipped cream, lightly spread it to the edge, and sprinkle the remaining peanut-pretzel mixture around the top edge. Slice and serve.

Time 4h5m

Yield 2 pies, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 chocolate cookie pie crust (I use Keebler brand)
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream, softened
1 (18 ounce) jar creamy peanut butter (or 2 Cups)
1 (8 ounce) container Cool Whip
8 reeces peanut butter cups, chopped

Steps:

  • Working quickly, blend the 1/2 gallon softened vanilla ice cream with the peanut butter, mix well.
  • Stir in the Cool Whip until well blended.
  • Quickly divide between the two pie crusts, sprinkle with chopped peanut butter cups, and freeze for 3 to 4 hours until frozen solid.
  • Take out about 10 minutes before serving for easier slicing. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. This includes using real butter, cream, and peanut butter. Organic ingredients are also a good choice.
  • Make sure the ice cream is completely frozen before assembling the pie. This will help to prevent the ice cream from melting and making the pie runny.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular pie plate. Just be sure to trim the excess pie crust from the edges.
  • The pie can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Just be sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or foil.
  • When you're ready to serve the pie, let it thaw for about 15 minutes at room temperature. This will make it easier to slice and serve.
