Matcha mint ice cream pie, anyone? Featuring homemade fresh mint ice cream with a hint of matcha for color and flavor, frozen in a sweet and salty cookie crust with a hidden layer of fudge sauce.
The fresh mint flavor of this ice cream pie is what makes it truly unique, and so much better than the jarring, mouthwashy mint flavor that comes from mint extract. Once you’ve tried fresh mint ice cream you’ll never be able to eat anything else!
Matcha & mint. Mint & matcha. They just sound good together.
But they taste even better together.
The idea to add matcha started with a desire for a green mint without food coloring. What better natural green color is there? But in the end, the matcha does so much more than that, adding another layer of flavor to the bright, fresh mint.
The easiest way to make ice cream more impressive? Put it in a pie crust.
I mean, a heaping scoop of fresh mint ice cream would would be lovely and all, but when you get a crisp triangular slice of ice cream in a sweet and salty chocolate cookie crust…
For the same reason that ice cream sandwiches are the bomb (hello sweet + salty) applies to this pie too.
Also? That hidden layer of fudge sauce in the bottom puts this one over the top.
