Recipe information

    Makes 6 servings

Ingredients

1 quart vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
1 (9-inch) purchased chocolate-cookie pie crust or graham-cracker pie crust
1/3 cup purchased chocolate syrup (in squirt bottle)
2 tablespoons toasted almonds, chopped
2 (6-ounce) containers blueberries

2 (6-ounce) containers blackberries
