Ingredients

Pretzel Crust

  • 2 cups small pretzel twists, such as Haddar, crushed

  • 3/4 cup cookie crumbs

  • 4–5 tablespoons oil

  • 1–2 tablespoons sugar (optional)

Coffee Ice Cream

  • 2 cups raw cashews, soaked for 4 hours and drained

  • 3/4 cup coconut milk, such as Gefen or cream (I prefer cream, for texture)

  • 1/3 cup natural maple syrup

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons Elite Instant Coffee

  • 1 teaspoon coffee liqueur

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot starch

Fudge

Directions

Prepare the Crust

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

2.

Combine all crust ingredients in a small bowl. Press onto the bottom and sides of a nine-inch (23-centimeter) pan. Bake for five to seven minutes. Set aside to cool.

Prepare the Coffee Ice Cream

1.

Add the cashews, coconut milk or cream, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coffee, coffee liqueur, and salt to a food processor fitted with the S-blade and mix until thick and creamy. Add the starch while blending.

2.

Pour over cooled crust. Freeze.

Prepare the Fudge

1.

Heat the soy milk and chocolate chips in a small saucepan until the chocolate is melted.

2.

Add the rest of the ingredients and whisk for two to three minutes, until well combined. Remove from heat. Drizzle fudge over ice cream pie.

3.

Freeze the remaining fudge for later use. Rewarm before using.

Tips:

If you prefer a more conventional (less healthful!) coffee ice cream, just add a teaspoon or more instant coffee and liqueur, if desired, to your favorite vanilla ice cream recipe. You can also use store-bought coffee ice cream.

Notes:

Freeze leftover coconut milk or cream in plastic cups for future use.
