Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups (crushed) Graham crackers
  • 0.5 cups (melted) Unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 1.5 quarts (slightly softened) Vanilla ice cream
  • 1 cup (roughly chopped) Salted peanuts
  • 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cups (optional, for garnish) Chocolate syrup

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and granulated sugar until evenly combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish to form an even layer. Set aside.

Step 2

Start the ice cream layer: Take the slightly softened vanilla ice cream and spread it evenly over the graham cracker crust. Smooth it out with a spatula and place the dish in the freezer for at least 1 hour to firm up.

Step 3

Create the chocolate layer: In a small saucepan, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 4

Assemble the layers: Remove the dish from the freezer and spread the chopped peanuts evenly over the ice cream layer. Pour the slightly cooled chocolate mixture over the peanuts, spreading it into an even layer with a spatula. Return the dish to the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.

Step 5

Serve the dessert: Before serving, let the dessert sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to make slicing easier. Cut into squares or bars and optionally drizzle with chocolate syrup for added flair.

Step 6

Store leftover dessert in the freezer, covered tightly with plastic wrap or foil, for up to 1 week.
