   • Freeze the crust for at least 15–30 minutes.

2. Assemble the filling:

   • Spread a thin layer of fudge sauce over the chilled crust.

   • Spoon in softened coffee ice cream and spread evenly.

   • Sprinkle chopped chocolate and nuts over the ice cream layer.

3. Freeze:

   • Cover with plastic wrap or foil and freeze for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

4. Serve:

   • Drizzle with extra fudge sauce, add whipped cream, and sprinkle with your favorite toppings just before serving.

💡 Tips:

• Want a different flavor? Swap coffee ice cream for chocolate, mint chip, or peanut butter swirl.

• For a firmer crust, bake it at 350°F (175°C) for 8 minutes, then cool completely before filling.
