The method

Step by step

1
In a medium bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and light corn syrup.
About 2 min
2
Stir the mixture with a spatula until it is smooth and well-combined.
About 2 min
3
Spread the 'bottom layer' portion of softened vanilla ice cream evenly into the base of the graham cracker crust.
About 3 min
Cook’s note: Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before starting, which will make it easier to spread.
4
Carefully spoon and spread the peanut butter mixture in an even layer over the ice cream.
About 3 min
Cook’s note: Work quickly so the bottom ice cream layer doesn't melt too much.
5
Top with the 'top layer' portion of vanilla ice cream, spreading it gently to cover the peanut butter filling and smooth the surface.
About 3 min
6
If using, drizzle the chocolate sauce over the top of the pie.
About 1 min
7
Sprinkle the chopped walnuts evenly over the surface for garnish.
About 1 min
8
Cover the pie tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and place it on a level surface in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.
