Fabulous Candy Bar Pie Recipes

FABULOUS CANDY BAR PIE

Steps:

• Crush 5 of the candy bars.
• Combine Cool Whip, cream cheese and candy bars.
• Mix well.
• Place mixture in graham cracker crust.
• Crush the remaining candy bar and use for topping.
• Chill until firm (approximately 20-30 min).
• With this recipe I generally try to not use Light Cool Whip or fat free cream cheese unless I can chill the pie overnight - It has a tendency to make the pie run (even after it has chilled overnight) - You can use regular Cool Whip and reduced fat cream cheese, however.
• Candy bars: I prefer Butterfinger or Heath - They are usually sold in a 6 pack, but if you can't find the regular sized bars, purchase 2-10 packs of the fun sized bars (reserve 3 of them for topping).

HEATH BAR ICE CREAM PIE WITH HOT FUDGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix together the chocolate crumbs and the butter and pat onto the bottom of a 13X9X2 inch pan.
• Place in freezer to firm up while preparing filling.
• Remove Heath Bars from refrigerator and crush into smallish pieces.
• Soften ice cream and mix with the crushed candy bars.
• Carefully spread the ice cream over the crumb crust, cover with foil and freeze overnight.
• Sauce: In a double boiler, melt chocolate chips and butter, stirring often.
• Add sugar and evaporated milk and cook until thickened,stirring, about 8 minutes.
• Remove from heat and add vanilla.
• Serve warm over squares of ice cream pie.
• Sauce can be made ahead.
• Refrigerate until needed and slowly warm again to serve.
• Note: This sauce keeps well, refrigerated, and is nice to have on hand for instant desserts.

TWIX CHEESECAKE PIE

Steps:

• With an electric mixer, beat cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs on medium speed until smooth.
• Stir in 1 and 1/2 cups of the chopped Twix {reserving the remaining 1/2 cup for the top}.
• Pour mixture into the pie crust. Bake at 325 degrees until set, 45 - 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle the top with remaining 1/2 cup chopped Twix bars. Chill until firm, about 8 to 10 hours or overnight. Drizzle with caramel ice cream topping.
