With its buttery graham cracker crust, silky coffee-infused filling, and topping of toasted almonds, this frozen treat is the perfect balance of texture and flavor.

Finished with a sprinkle of almonds and optional chocolate shavings for added allure, this pie is ideal for coffee lovers seeking a refreshing treat. It's easy to prepare, requires just 30 minutes of hands-on time, and makes an elegant dessert for any gathering—or a simple weeknight indulgence.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden and set. Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee granules in the hot water. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, dissolved coffee, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the coffee mixture using a spatula, working in batches to maintain a light and airy texture.
Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Sprinkle the toasted almonds over the top of the pie. If desired, garnish with chocolate shavings for an extra touch of indulgence.
Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in the freezer. Freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm.
Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly for easier slicing. Serve immediately and enjoy!
