Tuesdays With Dorie: Banana Coconut Ice Cream Pie

Before I begin... thanks Spike for choosing this pie.  It's so good!

This week's TWD pick is Banana Coconut Ice Cream Pie.  It's a coconut butter crust, a layer of bananas and a layer of chocolate ice cream mixed with bananas.  I wasn't sure what to expect with this pie, but I think it was a winner.  I loved the crust.  Loved it.  Yum!


I made the chocolate ice cream from scratch in my new ice cream maker.  I used Dorie's recipe for Chocolate Ganache Ice Cream, made with real bittersweet chocolate.  It's great on its own, and it's tasty in the pie as well.  I'll post that recipe later this week.

Enjoy!
