Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Oreo cookie crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon Peppermint extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Whipped cream
- 0.5 cups Crushed peppermint candies
- 0.5 cups Chocolate curls (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the Oreo cookie crumbs and melted unsalted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow it to cool completely.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk, stirring constantly until smooth and glossy.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the peppermint extract and salt until fully combined.
Pour the warm fudge mixture into the cooled Oreo crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours, or until the filling is firm and set.
Before serving, top the pie with whipped cream, spreading it evenly over the chocolate fudge filling.
Sprinkle crushed peppermint candies on top of the whipped cream for a festive touch.
Add optional chocolate curls as garnish for extra decoration and flavor.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious Peppermint Fudge Pie!
