Individual Ice Cream Pies with Hudsonville
*This post was sponsored by Hudsonville Ice Cream, but (as always!) all opinions are my own. Thank you for supporting the brands that make Lake Shore Lady possible!
Summer is here, and nothing screams summer more than ICE CREAM! If you take a look in our freezer, we pretty much always have a pint or two of Hudsonville Ice Cream in there – just in case 😉 But instead of just indulging with a spoon, I thought it would be fun to do something a little bit more interactive: individual ice cream pies!!
This recipe is incredibly easy, but the process is really fun and the end results are so adorable. I also LOVE that you can customize this however you want! My favorite flavor from Hudsonville’s Extra Indulgent line is Mint Cookie Dough (YUM!), but Adam’s is Cookie Overload. I like whipped cream on top, and Adam likes chocolate sauce. You can play around with the ice cream flavors and toppings as much as you want – and I can think of many opinionated children who would LOVE having this much control over a sweet treat. Such a fun family activity!
Before we get to the recipe, let’s chat about Hudsonville! If you’ve been following me a while, you know that I’ve been a fan of them for years – and yes, they live up to the hype! Hudsonville Ice Cream is a family owned Midwestern company, and they’ve been perfecting the art of ice cream making in Michigan since 1926.

Individual Ice Cream Pies
Ingredients
28 sandwich creme cookies
2.5 tbsp butter, melted
A few pints of Hudsonville Ice Cream (pick a variety of your favorite flavors!)
Toppings: whipped cream, sprinkles, chocolate sauce, chocolate chip cookies, berries, etc.
Instructions
1. Add sandwich creme cookies to a food processor and pulse until they are fine crumbs. Add melted butter and stir into the crumbles.
2. Scoop a few spoonfuls of that mixture into the mini pie pans. Firmly press along the bottom and sides of the pan until it forms an even crust. Freeze for about 10 minutes to set.
3. While that is setting, take your ice cream out to soften.
4. Once your ice cream is soft enough to spread, remove the pie pans from the freezer and scoop about 1/3-1/2 cup of ice cream into each one. Smooth the ice cream out the edges. Freeze again for about 10 minutes to set.
5. While the pies are setting for the last time, get your toppings ready! Take the ones you want to eat out of the freezer and allow everyone to top their own pies with whatever they like best. I topped my Mint Cookie Dough pie with whipped cream and sprinkles, and Adam topped his Cookie Overload pie with cookie crumbles and chocolate sauce!
