Hawaiian Mudslide

This weekend we tried an experiment to replicate a mud pie we had in Kona, Hawaii similar to the one pictured above.

This is a very easy thing to make and will get the same reaction as the volleyball scene in Top Gun from the women in your life. You will need:

1/2 gallon of coffee ice cream
one Jello no bake oreo dessert
one jar of Grandma Richardson's hot fudge sauce

The jello no bake dessert will have both the oreo crumbs (for the crust) and the chunks (to mix with the ice cream).

Soften the ice cream in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes.

Melt 4 tablespoons butter (directions on jello container) and mix them with the oreo crumbs. Press crust into bottom of pie dish to form your crust. I used a 9" spring form pan. This made it really easy to cut and serve.

Put your crust in the freezer for 20-30 minutes. Mix the ice cream with the oreo chunks, then spread over crust.

After ice cream has been in freezer for 2 hours, spread the room temperature hot fudge sauce over the top of ice cream. Let it freeze another 2 hours.

Cut and serve. It was delicious just like this, but if you want to make it even more decadent, add whip cream and heated hot fudge over the pie. Even if you don't like coffee flavor very much, the flavors blend together really well with just a hint of the coffee flavor.
