Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375ðF (190ðC).
  2. Crush the cinnamon graham crackers into fine crumbs in a food processor or sealed bag.
  3. Mix the graham cracker crumbs with melted butter or margarine until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  4. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate.
  5. Bake the crust for 8 minutes or until lightly browned and fragrant.
  6. Remove from oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. In a large bowl, soften the vanilla ice cream and orange sherbet slightly so they are easy to mix.
  8. Gently fold in the solid-pack pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until just combined; do not overmix to maintain airiness.
  9. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the cooled crust and spread evenly.
  10. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 8 hours, or up to 2 weeks.
  11. About 10 minutes before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature to soften slightly for slicing.
  12. Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form and garnish each slice with a dollop of whipped cream and candied orange peel diamonds if desired.
