Do you love coffee ice cream? This Mud Pie with Coffee and Chocolate Fudge (Gluten Free) is so easy to make. It brings me back to when I could order a slice of this pie out in some of my favorite restaurants. The timeless pie was one of my favorite desserts to order! However, this was long before I needed to be on a gluten free diet.
Now, it’s quite difficult to find this pie gluten free in restaurants.
Which is strange, since no one will notice nor care if this pie is made without the gluten. The coffee lovers will be in heaven to enjoy a slice of this decadent ice cream pie! The gluten free family or friends will feel so much love getting to have a slice, also.
Summer calls for summer desserts
While lots of desserts are satisfying in the summer months, ice cream and ice cream pies are so of the best kinds of desserts, in my opinion. You can serve them all year long too! This one hits all the buttons for me, since I’m an avid coffee and coffee ice cream lover.
Normally, I only make an ice cream pie like this Mud Pie with Coffee and Chocolate Fudge (Gluten Free) when we’re having a party or get together. Otherwise I may eat the entire thing over a few days!
Switch up the flavors if you like
While the classic Mud Pie with Coffee and Chocolate Fudge (Gluten Free) is one of my favorites, switching up the flavor of ice cream is always an option. Maybe even try using two or three flavors of ice cream if you like!
Such as, a Neopolitan version, would be pretty and fun to make! My granddaughter and I have been talking about Neopolitan ice cream a lot lately. Maybe you’ll see an ice cream pie with it in the future.
A while back, I made a scrumptious peanut butter and chocolate ice cream pie. This version was another hit in our family! Peanut butter and chocolate just go together, right?!
I called this pie my leftover ice cream pie, because it used leftover Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cookies from a couple of days before. As well, I got to use up ice cream I had in the freezer!
Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups made a wonderful topping for this pie. I’m so thankful Trader Joe’s Peanut Butter Cups do not contain any gluten! However, these yummy peanut butter cups are not labeled gluten free. So, if you certified gluten free, please use Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups or another gluten free certified choice.

You’ll always win when serving an ice cream pie and you can tailor the pie, choosing an ice cream everyone loves. You can even make this with a homemade ice cream, like our Perfectly Creamy Vanilla Ice Cream (Gluten Free) for a more classic version.
