Ingredients

• 200 grams Chocolate graham crackers
• 75 grams Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 liter Vanilla ice cream, softened
• 1.5 tablespoons Instant espresso powder
• 250 milliliters Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 50 grams Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Line the bottom of a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

Crush the chocolate graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor, or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.

Step 3

In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles damp sand.

Step 4

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the springform pan to form the torte's crust. Chill in the freezer for at least 15 minutes.

Step 5

In a large bowl, combine the softened vanilla ice cream with the instant espresso powder. Stir until the espresso powder is evenly incorporated.

Step 6

Spread the espresso-flavored ice cream evenly over the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Cover the pan with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, and freeze the torte for at least 4 hours, or until fully firm.

Step 8

Shortly before serving, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form.

Step 9

Remove the torte from the springform pan, and place it on a serving platter.

Step 10

Spread the whipped cream over the top of the frozen torte, or dollop it on individual slices as desired.

Step 11

Garnish with chocolate shavings and a dusting of cocoa powder, if using.

Step 12

Slice and serve immediately. Store leftovers in the freezer.
