Steps:

• Line an 8-quart bowl with plastic wrap, leaving an overhang. Tip the coffee ice cream into the bowl and smooth the surface. Sprinkle the chopped pecans on top and freeze until the ice cream is firm, at least 1 hour.
• Tip the chocolate ice cream into the bowl over the pecans and smooth the surface. Sprinkle the toffee pieces on top and freeze until firm, at least 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, put the sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Pour in the melted butter and pulse to combine. Set aside.
• Once the chocolate ice cream is firm, tip the vanilla ice cream into the bowl over the toffee pieces and smooth the surface. Tip the cookie mixture on top of the vanilla ice cream; spread it evenly and press down firmly. Cover with the overhanging plastic and freeze until completely firm, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Turn out the pie onto a cake stand or platter lined with 4 squares of parchment so that the paper hangs over the edges of the platter. Peel off the plastic wrap from the pie and pour the chocolate shell over the ice cream to cover completely. Slide out the sheets of parchment.

Steps:

• Combine walnuts and biscuits. Add butter and mash thoroughly.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a 10-inch diameter springform pan and press biscuit crust into base and 2-inches up side. Cover this crust with waxed paper, cut to fit bottom exactly. Fill pan with split peas, up to height of sides and bake "blind" for 1 hour. Let cool while still filled.
• When crust is cooled, removed pea weights and paper. Meanwhile, whip egg whites with cold water and salt until peaked. Fold in sugar a little at a time. Add vanilla and keep cool.
• Unmold ice cream from containers and cut horizontally through middle of each to yield 4 discs total. Place disks in pie crust, alternating strawberry and vanilla flavors. Top with meringue, letting it fall all around the ice cream. Set in freezer for 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Remove pie from freezer and place in oven to brown meringue tips. You may also use a blowtorch instead. Serve with chocolate sauce.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the milk, sour cream, lime juice, and food coloring if desired. Fold in whipped topping. Pour into the crust and refrigerate for at least 12 hours. Preparation time does not include refrigeration time.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare brownie mix as directed on package. Pour into greased 9-inch pie plate. Bake 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely on wire rack.
• Scoop out center of brownie with spoon, leaving a 1-inch crust around edge and thin layer of brownie on bottom. Reserve removed brownie pieces.
• Pour milk into large bowl. Add dry pudding mixes. Beat with wire whisk 2 minutes. (Mixture will be thick.) Stir in half of the whipped topping and all but 1/4 cup of the reserved brownie pieces. Spoon into brownie crust; top with remaining whipped topping and remaining brownie pieces. Refrigerate 2 hours or until set. Store leftover dessert in refrigerator.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the milk, sour cream, lime juice and food coloring if desired. Fold in whipped topping. Pour into the crust. Refrigerate for at least 12 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Position an oven rack in the lower part of the oven and place a baking stone on it.
• Place the apples into a large mixing bowl, and toss with the lemon juice.
• Stir the potato starch, 3/4 cup sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a bowl.
• Roll out half of the pie crust pastry on a lightly floured surface and fit it into a 10 inch pie plate. Pile half the apples into the crust, and dot with half the butter pieces. Sprinkle half of the potato starch-cinnamon sugar mixture over the apples. Pile the remaining apples into the pie plate. Sprinkle with the remaining butter pieces and sugar mixture. Roll out the remaining pie crust pastry, and place carefully over the apples. Pinch and crimp the edges to seal the crusts. Use a fork to poke holes in the top crust in a few places. Brush the top crust with milk, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Place the pie in the preheated oven on the baking stone. Immediately lower the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 60 minutes. Check half way through the baking time, and cover the edges with aluminum foil for the last 30 minutes if necessary to prevent over-browning. Cool 3 hours on a wire rack before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch, and use to line a 9-inch pie tin. Crimp the edges decoratively. Chill until firm. In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk and cream to make a glaze. Prick the bottom of the shell with a fork, brush the top edges with the glaze, and line with parchment paper. Weight the shell with pie weights or dried beans, and bake until the edges begin to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove paper and weights; continue baking until golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes more. Let cool.
• To make filling, combine cornstarch, cake flour, salt, and sugar in a medium nonreactive saucepan over medium heat. Gradually add 2 cups cold water. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking constantly, about 4 minutes.
• Remove the pan from heat. Temper egg yolks by beating a small amount of hot mixture into the yolks before adding them to pan. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes.
• Remove the pan from heat, and whisk in the lemon juice and rind. Add the butter one piece at a time. Pour the mixture into a large bowl, and let cool.
• Pour the filling into the cooled shell and refrigerate, covered with aluminum foil, until firm, about 1 hour.
• To make the meringue, combine egg whites, sugar, and salt in a heat-proof bowl. Set over a pan of simmering water; beat until warm and sugar is dissolved. Remove bowl from heat; whip into stiff peaks.
• Spread the meringue over pie so that it touches crust all around. Broil until brown, about 2 minutes, watching constantly. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the milk, sour cream, lime juice and food coloring.
• Fold in whipped topping.
• Pour into the crust.
• Refrigerate for at least 12 hours.

Steps:

• If using a hand-held mixer, you will need a very deep bowl, and should move the beaters vigorously when beating the egg whites for the meringue, to avoid underbeating the egg whites. This pie is best on the day it's made.
• FOR THE FILLING: Whisk sugar, lemon juice, water, cornstarch, and salt together in a large nonreactive saucepan until cornstarch is dissolved. Bring to simmer over medium heat. Whisk in yolks until comined. Stir in zest and butter. Bring to simmer and stir constantly until mixture is thick enough to coat back of spoon, about 2 minutes. Strain through fine-mesh strainer into pie shell and scrape filling off underside of strainer. Place wrap directly on surface of filling and refrigerate until set and well chilled, at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
• FOR THE MERINGUE: Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 400°F Combine water and sugar in small saucepan. Bring to vigorous boil over medium-high heat. Once syrup comes to rolling boil, cook 4 minutes (mixture will become slightly thickened and syrupy). Remove from heat and set aside while beating whites.
• With electric mixer, beat in large bowl, at medium-low speed until frothy, about 1 minutes. Add salt and cream of tartar, and beat , gradually increasing sped to medium-high, until whites hold soft peaks, about 2 minutes. With mixer runnin, slowly pour hot syrup into whites (avoid pouring syrup onto whisk or it will splash). Add vanilla and beat until meringue has cooled and becomes very thick.
• Using rubber spatula, mound meringue over filling, making sure meringue touches edges of crust. Use spatula to create peaks all over meringue. Bake until peaks turn golden brown, about 6 minutes. Transfer to wire rack, and cool to room temerature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix 1-1/2 cups of the crumbs and the margarine until well blended; press firmly onto bottom and up side of 9-inch pie plate. Bake 5 minutes; cool.
• Spread chocolate ice cream into prepared crust. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup of the remaining crumbs; drizzle with topping. Top with coffee ice cream. Freeze 2 hours or until firm.
• Sprinkle with remaining crumbs. Let stand at room temperature 10 minutes before cutting into 12 slices to serve. Top with the whipped topping just before serving. Store leftover pie in freezer.
