Method

  1. 1

    Crust. Process 12 sugar ice-cream cones to fine crumbs, about 30 s, then stir in 70 g melted butter and 25 g caster sugar until moistened.

  2. 2

    Bake. Press the crumb mixture firmly over the base and up the sides of the pie dish and bake at 180 °C for 6-8 min until crisp, then cool completely on a rack, about 30 min.

  3. 3

    Mix. Soften 950 ml vanilla ice cream in a bowl, add the chopped chocolate sandwich biscuits and mash together with the back of a spoon.

  4. 4

    Fill. Spread the ice cream mixture evenly into the cooled crust and press cling film onto the surface.

  5. 5

    Freeze. Freeze for at least 4 h until firm.

  6. 6

    Serve. Cut into wedges and top each with a spoonful of whipped cream.
