Peanut Butter Cornflake Ice Cream Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
    1/2 cup light corn syrup
    4 cups corn flakes cereal (I use \"Clusters\" brand ONLY)
    1 quart vanilla ice cream, slightly softened (prefer Breyer's Natural Vanilla)
    chocolate syrup, optional for garnish
    peanuts, optional for garnish
Preparation
    Stir together peanut butter and syrup in a medium to large sized bowl.
    Add Clusters brand cereal and stir until evenly coated.
    Press half of this mixture into the bottom of a 9\" pie plate.
    Scoop and press ice cream into bottom \"crust\".
    Top with remaining \"crust\" mixture.
    Return to freezer.
    Remove from freezer 5 minutes before serving.
    Optional: Serve drizzled with chocolate syrup and sprinkled with peanuts.
    I usually prefer this without either the chocolate syrup or the peanuts, but it's great either way!
    Recipe can be doubled to fit 9x13 dish.
    Cooking/Prep times do not reflect the hour or so needed to let this dessert firm up in the freezer after prep.
