Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 cookies chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 4 drops green food coloring
- 8 ounces whipped topping, thawed
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a food processor, pulse the chocolate sandwich cookies until they turn into fine crumbs.
Transfer cookie crumbs to a bowl and mix with the melted butter until well combined.
Press the cookie mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk to the cream cheese, mixing until fully incorporated.
Add the peppermint extract and green food coloring to the cream cheese mixture, stirring until the color is even and the mint flavor is distributed.
Gently fold in the whipped topping until the filling is light and fluffy.
Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator and pour the mint filling into the crust, spreading it evenly.
Smooth the top of the filling with a spatula. Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Before serving, garnish the pie with drizzled chocolate syrup and chocolate shavings, if desired.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your refreshing Grasshopper Mint Pie!
