Ingredients
- 2 cups (crushed) Graham crackers
- 0.5 cups (melted) Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar
- 1.5 quarts (softened) Vanilla ice cream
- 1 cup Heath toffee bits
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
1. Prepare the crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is evenly moistened.
Step 2
2. Press the crust mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish lined with parchment paper. Ensure the crust is even and firmly packed. Place the dish in the freezer for 15 minutes to set.
Step 3
3. Spread the softened vanilla ice cream evenly over the chilled crust, creating a smooth layer. Sprinkle the toffee bits evenly on top of the ice cream layer. Return the dish to the freezer for 2 hours, or until the ice cream is firm.
Step 4
4. Make the chocolate topping: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Stir continuously until the chocolate melts and the mixture is smooth and glossy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 5
5. Pour the cooled chocolate topping over the frozen ice cream layer, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the chocolate for a flavor boost.
Step 6
6. Return the dish to the freezer for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate layer is firm.
Step 7
7. To serve, lift the dessert out of the dish by pulling up the parchment paper. Use a sharp knife to cut into bars. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer.
