PUMPKIN ICE CREAM PIE WITH CHOCOLATE-ALMOND BARK AND TOFFEE SAUCE

Steps:

• For crust:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Finely grind graham crackers in processor. Mix in sugar. Add butter; mix to blend. Press onto bottom and up sides of 10-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Bake until light brown around edges, about 12 minutes. Cool completely.
• For filling:
• Whisk first 9 ingredients in medium bowl. Slightly soften ice cream in microwave in 10-second intervals. Measure 1 cup ice cream; cover and freeze (reserve for another use). Spoon remaining ice cream into large bowl. Working quickly, add pumpkin mixture and fold just until swirled into ice cream (do not blend completely). If ice cream begins to melt, freeze until almost firm. Spoon ice cream filling into cooled crust, cover with plastic, and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep frozen.
• For bark, sauce, and topping:
• Line baking sheet with parchment paper; spray with nonstick spray. Stir chocolate in bowl set over saucepan of simmering water until melted and smooth. Pour onto baking sheet. Using offset spatula, spread chocolate in even layer into 12x9-inch rectangle. Sprinkle with nuts. Place in freezer until hard, at least 30 minutes. Invert onto work surface. Peel off paper. Coarsely chop. Place DO AHEAD: Chocolate-almond bark can be made 2 days ahead. Keep frozen.
• Bring brown sugar, corn syrup, 3 tablespoons water, and butter to boil in heavy medium saucepan, stirring until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium and boil until dark brown, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Carefully stir in 1/2 cup cream, vanilla, and salt (mixture will bubble vigorously). Boil 1 minute longer. Cool slightly. DO AHEAD: Sauce can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm before serving.
• Using electric mixer, beat 1 1/2 cups cream and 2 tablespoons sugar in medium bowl until peaks form. Spoon decoratively over pie. Sprinkle chocolate-almond bark over. Cut pie into wedges and serve, passing warm sauce alongside.

PUMPKIN ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Mix all of the Cookie Crumble ingredients together then spread evenly over a foil lined cookie sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden.
• While the baked Cookie Crumble is still warm, break it up into small crumbles. Set aside 3/4 cup to garnish pie. Press remaining crumble firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a lightly greased 9-inch pie pan to create crust; set aside.
• Mix all of the ingredients for ice cream filling until well blended then spoon over crust. Sprinkle with reserved cookie crumble and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Freeze until completely firm, at least 3 hours (may freeze for days-weeks ahead of time). If freezing for an extended period of time, double wrap in plastic wrap then wrap in foil to avoid freezer burn.
• Melt butter in heavy cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Once butter has melted, stir in chocolate until melted and smooth. Stir in corn syrup, vanilla and cinnamon. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
• Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. To reuse, heat in the microwave or on the stove.
• Let pie sit out for 10-20 minutes before serving. Garnish with whipped cream if desired and drizzling with chocolate sauce.
