BLUEBERRY ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Mix together the crushed cereal and the butter together until it resembles wet sand. Press into a 9-inch pie dish. Freeze until needed.
• In a bowl, lightly stir together the blueberry syrup and the ice cream so there are streaks of syrup through the ice cream, do not fully incorporated.
• Pour into the pie dish and spread.
• Freeze until solid. Top with whipped cream.

BLUEBERRY ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In bowl of food processor fitted with a steel blade combine almonds, brown sugar, and salt. Pulse until coarsely ground. Transfer to bowl and stir in melted butter. Turn into 9-inch pie plate. With fingers press onto bottom and sides to form a firm, even layer.
• Bake 8 to 12 minutes until lightly golden. Don't overbrown or the crust will have an overpowering flavor. Allow to completely cool on a rack. Transfer to freezer until ready to use (may be made up to a week in advance and frozen, tightly wrapped).
• In large, wide, nonreactive skillet combine blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, and salt, stirring well with a spoon to distribute the sugar and cornstarch. Add zest, lemon juice, water, and a few gratings of fresh nutmeg; stir again to blend.
• Cook and stir over medium heat until blueberries begin to pop, give off juice, and come to a full simmer. Simmer, stirring gently for 1 additional minute until sauce is lightly thickened and cornstarch is well cooked.
• Set aside to cool; refrigerate sauce until completely chilled before proceeding. (Consistency will be too soft unless sauce is thoroughly chilled.)
• Transfer ice cream to a mixing bowl and let stand in the refrigerator 30 minutes or until just softened.
• Spoon half into prepared crust. Spread in even layer and top with the chilled blueberry sauce. Spoon on remaining ice cream and spread to edges.
• Cover surface of ice cream with plastic wrap and freeze at least 8 hours or overnight until firmly set.
• In chilled mixing bowl, whisk crème fraîche, heavy cream, and sugar until just thickened to spreading consistency. Do not overbeat -- it's very easy to go from smooth to grainy. Spread cream mixture over pie; top with blueberries. Serve with heated sauce on the side. Makes 10 servings.

BLUEBERRY PIE WITH MEYER LEMON ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Combine the butter, flour and salt in a food processor. Pulse, pulse, pulse until the mixture looks like finely grated cheese. Add half of the ice water and pulse again. The mixture should start to come together to form a rough ball; if it still seems dry, add the remaining ice water and pulse until it has formed a rough ball. Remove the mixture from the food processor to a clean work surface and form it into 2 discs. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. (This can be done a few days in advance.)
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine blueberries, lemon zest and juice, sugar and cornstarch in a large bowl. Toss to combine. Set aside.
• Remove dough from the refrigerator 20 to 30 minutes before using to allow it to soften up a bit. Dust the dough and a work surface with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll one disc of dough out, rotating the dough a quarter turn after each roll and dusting lightly with flour if it feels tacky, into an even 11-inch circle about 1/8-inch thick.
• Butter a 9-inch pie plate and lay the dough in the plate. (There should be about 1/2-inch dough hanging over the sides. If there is more than that, trim it with a sharp pair of kitchen shears.) Fold the dough underneath itself around the rim of the pie plate and pinch or crimp into desired shape.
• Roll out second disc of dough and slice into 1 1/2-inch strips.
• Fill the pie with blueberries and lattice the dough strips on top. Crimp the edges to seal. Bake until the internal temperature reaches 195 degrees F, about 50 minutes. Allow to cool and set, about 1 hour. Serve topped with Meyer Lemon Ice Cream.
• Prepare a large bowl of ice water and set aside. Combine the cream, vanilla extract, lemon zest and 1/2 cup sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, turn off the heat and stir in lemon juice. Combine the eggs and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a small bowl and beat to a homogeneous consistency.
• Strain the cream mixture, then whisk a third of the cream mixture into the egg mixture. Immediately whisk the egg mixture back into the remaining cream mixture.
• Chill the mixture over the ice water bath.
• Churn the chilled mixture in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's directions. Transfer to a container and freeze, 2 hours.

RED VELVET-BLUEBERRY ICE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Scrape off and discard the frosting from the cupcakes; crumble the cupcakes into crumbs. Press all but 1/4 cup crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Freeze 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, let the ice cream and sorbet soften at room temperature, about 15 minutes. Spread the ice cream evenly over the crust using an offset spatula or rubber spatula; spread the sorbet on top. (Return the pie to the freezer between layers if the ice cream gets too soft.) Freeze while you make the whipped cream.
• Beat the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Top the pie with the whipped cream and sprinkle the reserved cupcake crumbs around the edge. Freeze until firm, at least 4 hours or overnight.

BLUEBERRY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a saucepan, heat the blueberries and 1/4 cup of the sugar over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries pop and begin to cook down, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool, then refrigerate until ready to use.
• In a saucepan, heat the cream, half-and-half, and vanilla bean over medium heat, stirring occasionally to make sure the mixture does not scorch on the bottom. When it reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), turn off the heat and set aside to infuse 10 to 15 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and the remaining 3/4 cup sugar. Whisking constantly, slowly pour the still-hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. At 160 degrees F, the mixture will give off a puff of steam. When the mixture reaches 180 degrees F, it will be thickened and creamy, like eggnog. If you do not have a thermometer, test it by dipping a wooden spoon into the mixture. Run your finger down the back of the spoon. If the stripe remains clear, the mixture is ready; if the edges blur, the mixture is not quite thick enough yet. When it is ready, quickly remove it from the heat.
• Meanwhile, half-fill a large bowl with ice water. Strain the mixture into a smaller bowl to smooth it and remove the vanilla bean. Whisk in the orange zest. Rest the smaller bowl in the ice water and let the mixture cool, stirring often, then continue according to the directions of your ice cream maker.
• Put a large mixing bowl in the freezer to chill. When the ice cream is finished, transfer it to the frozen bowl. Using a sturdy rubber spatula, fold in the blueberry mixture until swirled. Freeze.
