Ingredients
  

For the crust

  • 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup oats old fashioned
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup walnuts finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon all-spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

For the pie

  • 2 pints vanilla ice cream

For the chocolate ganache

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chopped
  • 4 tablespoons heavy cream heated
  • 1 tablespoon butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, combine all of the crust ingredients and mix until evenly combined. It should come together and form a moist mixture. Dump it into a 9-inch pie dish. Press the mixture with your hands, forming an even crust on the bottom and up the sides of the dish. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool down completely.
  • While the crust cools, move the ice cream to the fridge to allow it to soften. Once the crust has cooled, spoon the ice cream on top and spread it out evenly with the back of a spoon. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for about 6 hours, or overnight, to harden.
  • Pour the chocolate, melted butter, and heavy cream in a small bowl. Allow to sit for a few minutes. Stir until completely melted, smooth and glossy. Let sit for about 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to come down to room temperature. Pour the chocolate over the chilled ice cream pie and quickly spread it over the top in an even layer. Return to freezer and allow to harden.
  • Cut into slices and serve. Will keep in the freezer, tightly wrapped in plastic wrap for up to 4 days. Enjoy!
