Description

This delightful Grasshopper Pie offers a refreshing twist on classic desserts, combining the rich depth of chocolate with the bright, cool notes of mint. The base is made from crushed cream-filled chocolate cookies, providing a sturdy and sweet foundation that requires no baking. The filling is a luscious mixture of sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, and liqueurs that whip into a smooth, airy texture. Chilled until firm, this pie slices cleanly and delivers a perfect balance of sweetness and herbal freshness. It is an elegant yet simple treat for summer gatherings, holidays, or whenever you crave a nostalgic, diner-style dessert that feels both indulgent and refreshing.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the cream-filled chocolate cookies in a food processor or sealable plastic bag and crush them into fine crumbs.
  2. Press the cookie crumbs firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, creme de menthe, and creme de cacao.
  4. Pour the whipped heavy cream into the liqueur mixture and fold gently until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Pour the mint-chocolate filling into the prepared cookie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  6. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until firm.
  7. Garnish with fresh mint leaves before slicing and serving.
