Substitution
Mud Pie Mojo from Cold Stone Creamery copycat menu combines creamy coffee ice cream with Oreo cookie pieces, chocolate fudge, and roasted almonds for a decadent treat. If you don't have coffee ice cream on hand, espresso-flavored gelato or strong coffee-flavored frozen yogurt can serve as good substitutes. In place of Oreo cookie pieces, crushed chocolate sandwich cookies or chocolate wafer crumbs work well to maintain the crunchy texture. When mixing ingredients, use a stainless steel spade on a cold marble slab to achieve the signature blended consistency. Your mix-ins can be adjusted slightly depending on texture preferences, but be sure to distribute them evenly for balanced flavor in every scoop.
Tips
Ensure your marble stone is thoroughly chilled before starting to prevent the ice cream from melting too quickly during mixing. Use a stainless steel spade for gentle folding to maintain a balance between mixing thoroughly and preserving texture. Measure ingredients precisely, as uneven portions of fudge or nuts can overpower the coffee ice cream's flavor profile. Your serving cups should be pre-chilled if possible to help keep the Mud Pie Mojo cold longer after serving.
Nutritions

Variation or Alternatives
You can substitute the coffee ice cream with mocha or espresso-flavored ice cream for a stronger coffee taste.

Replace roasted almonds with toasted hazelnuts or pecans to add a different nutty crunch. Consider swirling in caramel sauce instead of chocolate fudge for a sweeter, buttery finish.
