Want to impress your friends at your July 4 cookout or party this year? Try this Fourth of July Ice Cream Pie! Think crunchy cookie crust with thick scoops of ice cream on top. But the best part is that a melted chocolate marshmallow mixture is poured on top before refreezing. And what makes it so festive is the sprinkling of red, white, and blue M&M’s on top! So easy, and you will bring your pie pan home empty, because everyone will want to try a slice.
