1 hrs
Place the dish in the freezer and freeze until the dessert is firm and set, at least 1 hour, or preferably 2-3 hours. (60 minutes)
For a richer flavor, use salted butter for the crust.
If you prefer a less sweet dessert, reduce the amount of pudding mix slightly.
To make your own whipped cream, whip 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream with 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
For easier slicing, let the dessert sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Customize this dessert with different flavors of pudding mix, such as chocolate or butterscotch.
Consider adding a layer of chopped pistachios between the crust and the ice cream for enhanced flavor and texture.
