Crème de menthe is a cool, minty liqueur. If you prefer not to use it, substitute 1/2 teaspoon mint extract. Ingredients:
8 reduced-fat cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies (such as reduced-fat oreos), coarsely crushed |
2 1/2 cups 1% low-fat milk |
1 (2.1-ounce) package chocolate sugar-free instant pudding mix |
2 tablespoons crème de menthe |
1 (8-ounce) container frozen fat-free whipped topping, thawed and divided |
3 (1.5-ounce) chocolate-covered peppermint patties (such as york), chopped |
1/2 (1-ounce) square semisweet chocolate |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle crushed cookies in bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. 2. Combine milk, pudding mix, and crème de menthe in a blender. Process until smooth. Pour into a bowl. Let stand 1 to 2 minutes or until pudding mixture thickens. Fold in half of container of whipped topping and peppermint patties. Spoon into prepared dish. Cover and chill 2 hours. 3. Shave chocolate with a vegetable peeler to get 2 tablespoons chocolate curls. Spread remaining whipped topping over mousse, and sprinkle with chocolate curls. |
