I added the carmel on the middle and top layers, and then also added chocolate sauce to decorate the top. Looked and tasted wonderful!
Easy and Refreshing

Made this for my boyfriends birthday in July. I was easy to make in my non-air conditioned kitchen and was so cold and refreshing to eat. He loved it, and so did I. I skipped simmering the caramel with the bourbon and just stirred it together, and it had a great taste.
yummy

Too much work for something that tasted "just OK"
Seemed like a big waste of time

Not really what I expected from this show.
Hard bits

User: Mike from Spring, TX User Rating:
The chocolate chips were too hard compared to the rest of the silky texture of the caramel and ice cream. Even our children did not like the dish and said it was "too crunchy". Would try substituting slightly thicker layers of caramel and leave out the bits that were hard on the teeth and overpowered the dessert. The word 'Mud' is not the best word to use to describe this dessert.

It was pretty good but I used peanut butter icing recipe instead of caramel and I think it made it much better!!
Nothing to write home about

I could not find the coffee ice cream at my local store; I used a fudge ribble instead. I made 6 pies for the youth group at church and they loved them. They are so easy to make. My son requested I add a cherry to each slice. Even our 50yr. old preacher liked it.
Yummy!!

I made this last weekend when my in-laws came to visit. It took a lot of time but looked very nice. My father-in-law was particularly interested in the recipe. He summed it up like this: "So you put ice cream in a premade pie shell. Big deal." Good point, dad. I don't know why I expected them to be so impressed. It is was it is.
Delicious!

Took a lot of time and the taste wasn't anything special. Much easier to buy a cake. My local grocery store makes excellent ice cream cakes. They aren't that popular in early March though. LOL
In my opinion this was way better than storebought

I know this because it didn't last long. I've tried buying storebought pies in the past, and I always end up throwing some of it away. This was very easy for me to make too. well worth it!
It sure doesn't taste like mud :)

Really not worth the effort. Baskin Robbins makes a much better cake and if I'm too busy to drop in, I just call my local grocery store and have them make one to order. It's much faster and the cost is about the same. It also looks much nicer which can be important for special occasions.
This Mud Pie recipe is almost as good as the one I have that take forever to make

The frozen choclate chips are waaaaay too much for this recipe. Try it without the chips and you might save a few teeth.....
For pete's sake

Add more bourbon to make this palatable. Other wise it is just another ice cream sundae n a crust.
My thoughts.

nothing more than icecream in a crust

Not as good as Baskin Robbins

Ended up being more trouble than fighting the traffic to Baskin Robbins and was just as expensive to make. And the results weren't that impressive.
haven't made this yet

User: ARLENE from rising sun, MD User Rating:
but with the addition of caramel, bourbon, nuts and chocolate chips it HAS to have more flavor than both Baskin-Robbins or Carvel ice cream cakes which are just plain old ice cream and chocolate crumbs. (I've had both ) How boring!
Poor imitation of a Baskin Robbins cake

About as expensive and a lot more work too.
We like Carvel better
