Ingredients
9
inch
Oreo cookie crust
2
cups
marshmallow creme
¼
cup
crème de menthe
2
cups
cold heavy whipping cream
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, beat marshmallow creme and creme de menthe together until smooth and well-combined.
Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form.
Carefully fold the whipped cream into the marshmallow mixture.
Pour mixture into the crust.
Freeze at least 2 hours, or until firm.
For easier cutting, remove from the freezer 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Oreo cookie crust:
A store-bought crust or a
homemade Oreo pie crust
will work.
Marshmallow creme:
The marshmallow cream adds sweetness and stability. It takes the place of using gelatin for structure.
Crème de menthe:
The liqueur gives the pie flavor and color. I've given a nonalcoholic substitute above the recipe.
Heavy whipping cream:
