Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreos)
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 3 drops green food coloring (optional)
- 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup whipped topping (optional, for garnish)
- 1 cup chocolate shavings or mint candies (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed. Alternatively, place them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin.
Transfer the crushed cookies to a medium bowl and stir in the melted butter until well combined.
Press the cookie mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar, peppermint extract, and green food coloring (optional) to the cream cheese and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain.
Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly.
Melt the semisweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth and melted.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the pie in a decorative pattern.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Before serving, garnish with whipped topping and chocolate shavings or mint candies, if desired.
