Directions
CHOCOLATE-WAFER CRUST
Prepare Chocolate-Wafer Crust. Spread half the ice cream over crust; add half the fruits (except the kiwi). Using a large serving spoon or ice-cream spade, spoon remaining ice cream over top. Freeze at least 3 hours or overnight. Before serving, top with remaining fruits, including kiwi; drizzle with topping and garnish with mint. Refrigerate about 10 minutes to soften ice cream slightly.

Chocolate-Wafer Crust: Heat oven to 375 degrees. Melt butter in medium size saucepan. Remove from heat; stir in chocolate-wafer crumbs. When well moistened, press evenly over bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
Bake for 8 minutes. Cool on wire rack before filling.
