Icebox Pies, Cookbook of the Day

Icebox pies, and icebox desserts in general, are ones that require no baking time. The filling for the pies might need some time cooking on the stove, but these types of recipes ultimately come together in the refrigerator or freezer. Icebox Pies is a collection of 70 of these easy, no-bake pies that are simple enough for even the most reluctant baker to master. The fillings include custards, mousses and ice creams to make pies like Black Bottom Butterscotch Pie, Banana Split Ice Cream Pie, Lime Cream and Strawberry Pie and Espresso Mousse Pie. In addition to the fillings, there are about 30 recipes for pie crusts and sauces/accompaniments. The crusts are all crumb crusts, made with different types of cookies and quickly cooked in the oven. While that would seem to take away from the "no bake" aspect, the crusts can (and should) be made well in advance, so you can have one or two on hand when you know you're going to want a pie. Alternatively, a store bought crust can easily be used to cut down even further on the prep time and the amount of cooking/mixing that needs to be done.

Tip of the Day

When cooking apples, save your apple cores and peels. Boil them for a half hour, simmer them, and save them for the next apple pie!
