Jessica’s love of coffee had her thinking what else she can do with it.

Because she’s not a baker, she whipped up a no-bake coffee ice cream pie. Yum!

She topped off her pie with some homemade whipped cream.

“This looks like a professional pie, and we never turned the oven on,” Jessica proclaimed. It’s the best afternoon pick-me-up, she added.
