This is one of my daughter’s favorite desserts.

When she saw I was making it, she asked if I was making it for her birthday (not for a month still.) She always asks for this for her birthday and I sometimes will make it for her then but pie isn’t always the best choice for a now 12 year olds birthday with friends.

I made this pie for you. Yes I did. Because I wanted to. And because I wanted to make something green that wasn’t a vegetable. For St. Patty’s Day.

And I even talked my friends into making some things for you for St. Patty’s Day.

Because I care.

So back to this pie.

It’s fast and easy to make, it’s just the waiting to eat it that’s hard. Oh and sharing it. Make sure the people you share with are worth it.

Grasshopper Pie

Grasshopper Pie

recipe source [ChocolateChocolateandmore.com|https://chocolatechocolateandmore.com/]

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cup Chocolate wafer crumbs (I used chocolate graham crackers)
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 1 (6 ounce) package Andes mint wafers
  • 4 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/3 cup creme de menthe
  • 1 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped

Instructions

  1. Combine chocolate wafer crumbs and melted butter, stirring till all combined. Gently press into a greased pie dish to create a loose crust. Bake at 350 degrees for 6-8 minutes.
  2. While crust is baking, cut mints up so you have some large pieces for garnishing and the rest smaller. This will happen anyway as you're chopping. Set aside.
  3. Combine Marshmallows, sugar and remaining butter in a double boiler (you can do this in a regular saucepan if you don't have a double boiler.) Cook until marshmallows are completely melted and well combined.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in Creme De Menthe.Let cool to room temperature.
  5. Fold in whipped whipped cream And your smaller bits of chopped mints. Pour into pie crust. Garnish with remaining chopped mints and freeze until firm.

About Grace

When I was younger, I was constantly in the kitchen helping my mom bake. It was fun getting to play with the flour and always getting to lick the spoon. I’ve always expressed an interest in baking and now I feel that it’s the right time for me to take over. I am a college student working towards a nursing degree as well as a full-time aunt to the sweetest little kids (they might pop up in some of the posts). I’ve learned most of what I know about baking and cooking from my mom, and I am continuing to self-teach through trial and error, which means plenty of sweets to be eaten. Read more...

    Wow, this looks great…can you believe I’ve actually never tasted grasshopper pie before? I think this is a great opportunity to try, especially after seeing how nice yours turned out!

    Thanks so much for organizing the blog hop, I had a lot of fun deciding on a green recipe! Hopefully we can do more “bloggy” things together in the future!
