Rich white chocolate filling billows over this pie's dark chocolate crust with a double-dose of mint flavor - and it all takes just 20 minutes to put together. There is an 8-24 hr chill time. Ingredients:
1 2/3 cups crushed chocolate wafer cookies |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package instant white chocolate pudding and pie filling mix |
1 1/2 cups milk |
1 cup whipping cream |
2 tablespoons powdered sugar |
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract |
crushed peppermint candy |
Directions:
1. Generously grease a 9-inch pie plate; set aside.
2. For crust: In a medium bowl, combine crushed chocolate cookies and melted butter.
3. Press mixture onto the bottom and up the side of the prepared pie plate. Cover and chill for at least 15 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, prepare pudding mix according to package directions for traditional pudding pie, using the 1 1/2 cups milk.
5. Spread filling in the chilled crust.
6. Cover and chill for 8 to 24 hours.
