Holiday Mint Pie
Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
1 cup mint flavored, chocolate sandwich cookies
3 Tbsp hot water
6oz graham cracker pie crust (or a chocolate one)
3 oz pkg cream cheese
1/3 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. milk
1/4 tsp peppermint extract
8oz container Cool Whip-thawed
6-10 drops green food coloring
Mix cookies and hot water. Spoon into crust and gently spread to
cover bottom. Beat cream cheese until smooth, gradually beat in
sugar, milk, and extract. Fold in whipped topping. (The recipe
says to split the mixture at this point and put food coloring in
one. Too much work--I made the whole thing pale green) Add food
coloring. Put dollops of mixture (some white, some green if you're
going that route) into crust. Smooth top with spatula.
Just before serving, make berries (cinnamon candies) and holly
leaves (spearmint jelly candies) and decorate top. Very festive
and good.
