Strawberry ice cream pie is the perfect dessert for hot summer days when you crave something cool, sweet, and refreshing. This dessert combines the rich, creamy texture of ice cream with the tangy sweetness of fresh strawberries, all set in a crunchy, buttery crust. It’s an easy-to-make treat that requires no baking, making it perfect for those lazy afternoons when you want a show-stopping dessert without the heat of the oven.
The crust is often made from crushed graham crackers or cookies, mixed with melted butter and pressed into a pie dish. This gives the pie a crunchy texture that contrasts beautifully with the creamy filling. You can even experiment with different types of cookies, like Oreos or shortbread, for a twist on the classic.
The filling is the star of this dessert, made by layering a generous amount of strawberry ice cream over the crust. If you’re feeling extra creative, you can mix in fresh chopped strawberries or a swirl of strawberry sauce to add more flavor and texture. For a little extra indulgence, some recipes call for a layer of whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce on top. The combination of cool ice cream and fresh strawberries creates a flavor explosion that’s perfect for warm weather.
What’s great about strawberry ice cream pie is that it’s so customizable. You can use store-bought ice cream or make your own for an even richer flavor. You can also mix in other fruits like blueberries or raspberries, or even add a handful of nuts or chocolate chips for crunch. No matter how you make it, this pie will always be a crowd-pleaser.
This dessert is not only easy to prepare but also requires no time in the oven, so you can spend more time enjoying the sunshine and less time in the kitchen. It’s the ultimate way to enjoy the sweet, fruity flavors of summer in every bite.

I think you need more ingredients to make it better. Like some cookies or something. It’s not enough!
I’m a little confused about the frozen time. 4 hours? Seems like too long, lol.
I made this thinking it was gonna be hard. Nah, super simple! You don’t even need an oven!
Glad you found it easy! It really is a no-fuss dessert. Can’t wait to try it myself!
I didn’t have strawberries, so I used blueberries! It was still yummy.
Made this for my mom’s bday and she cried! Best pie ever! 🥳
Not really a fan, it was too sweet for my taste. 😕
Too sweet? I thought it was perfect! What did you expect from strawberry ice cream pie? 🤔
I actually found it just right! Maybe try less ice cream next time? 🍦
Can you use other ice cream flavors? My kids are picky. I think they like chocolate instead.
I didn’t have strawberries, so I used raspberries. It was just ok.

Too chilly for me, I prefer hot desserts. 🤷♂️
I get that! Hot desserts are cozy. But you gotta try this in summer! It’s so refreshing! 😋
Pretty easy to make, but mine was a bit runny. Maybe I didn’t freeze it long enough?
I had it turned out too mushy, guess I didn’t freeze it long enough? Not sure if I would make again.
I got this recipe from my mom. She always made it for my birthday! Nostalgia!
Isn’t this just a simple ice cream pie? I dunno about the high nostalgia level for something so easy…
That sounds so special! I love when recipes bring back memories. Can’t wait to try it!
Isn’t this just ice cream in a pie crust? What’s the big deal?
It’s more than just that! The crust adds a nice crunch and the fresh strawberries make it a whole different experience! 😋
Took longer than the 4 hours to freeze. Disappointing but the taste was okay. Not super sweet.
Maybe try freezing it longer next time? Some freezers are slower, but glad you liked the taste!
Can you use other flavors of ice cream? Like chocolate? Cause strawberries ain’t my thing. 🤷♂️
Super easy to make! I might not be a chef, but I nailed it. 😄
I made it but forgot the cream on top. Was still great but could be better.
Graham crackers are gross. Just stick to ice cream straight up.
I actually think graham crackers add a nice crunch! But ice cream alone is yummy too. To each their own!
This pie is so easy to make and tastes amazing! My family loved it!
I totally agree! This pie is super easy and so delicious. I made it for my kids too, and they went crazy over it!

Yum! Strawberry ice cream + pie = perfection! 🍓👌
I had some trouble with the crust, it kept falling apart. Maybe my butter was too melted? 🤔
I messed up the crust. Used too much butter. Oops! But it was still ok.
