To end a wonderful meal...make this wonderful dessert.  It is loaded with goodness.


Peach Melba Ice Cream Pie
6-8 servings

1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
1/3 cup chopped pecans
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 quart frozen peach yogurt, softened
1 pint vanilla ice cream, softened
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon sugar
1 package (10 ounces) frozen raspberries in syrup, thawed
1 cup sliced fresh or frozen peaches, thawed

Combine the coconut, pecans and butter; press onto the bottom and up the sides of an un-greased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 350° for 12 minutes or until crust begins to brown around edges. Cool completely.
Spoon frozen yogurt into crust; smooth the top. Spread ice cream over yogurt. Cover and freeze for 2 hours or until firm.
In a small saucepan, combine cornstarch and sugar; drain raspberry juice into pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; add raspberries. Cover and chill.
Remove from freezer 10 minutes before serving. Arrange peaches on top of pie; drizzle with a little of the sauce. Pass the remaining sauce.

Mmm....looks easy and delicious. Love the idea of using yoghurt...makes it healthier. I should try more ice cream recipes for the summer. It's summer but still very cold :( Can you please blow some hot air over here?? My daughter has just shared with me a mouthful of haagen dazs ice cream and now I'm feeling cold....brrr. Very tempted to hide under my thick duvet again...haha

Peach, coconut and using yoghurt, sounds like a very serious and yummy dessert.

HI Drick, Happy Independence Day to all of you over there. What a celebration you're having there! I'm salivating by just looking at all those BBQ photos of yours and now the desserts some more. Man, you're making me crazy & hungry. I think the best place to visit in America should be Drick's home! As always, you serve the best food. Hope you're having a wonderful day.
Cheers, Kristy

One funny thing I learned recently from Jacques Pepin at Aspen Food and Wine- Peach Melba and Melba Toast were dishes created by Escoffier for a famous and picky Australian soprano- Nellie Melba!
