Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces Chocolate sandwich cookies
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream, cold
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon Peppermint extract
- 10 drops Green food coloring
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate shavings or sprinkles (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely ground into crumbs.
Transfer the cookie crumbs to a bowl and mix in the melted butter until all the crumbs are evenly coated.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Place the crust in the freezer to set while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
In another mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the sweetened condensed milk, peppermint extract, and green food coloring, then beat until well combined and evenly tinted.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula until fully incorporated.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips to distribute them evenly throughout the mixture.
Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. Smooth the surface for a clean finish.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 3 hours, or until firm.
Before serving, optionally garnish the pie with whipped cream and chocolate shavings or sprinkles for a decorative touch.
Slice and serve immediately while frozen. Enjoy this refreshing Grasshopper Mint Chocolate Pie!
