Instructions
-
Make the Crust:
- In a bowl, mix the crushed Oreos with melted butter. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.

-
Prepare the Filling:
- Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla pudding mix, and milk, mixing until creamy.
- Stir in the peppermint extract and green food coloring, adjusting until the desired color and flavor are achieved.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping to maintain a light and airy texture.
-
Assemble & Chill:
- Pour the filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the pie to set.
-
Decorate & Serve:
- Once set, top with whipped cream, crushed Oreos or Andes mints, and a maraschino cherry.
- Slice and serve chilled.
Notes
For a mintier flavor, increase the peppermint extract.
Switch up the crust by using a graham cracker crust for a lighter flavor.
To make it boozy, add a splash of crème de menthe to the filling.
You can store the pie in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Freezing is optional, but if you do freeze, make sure to wrap it well and thaw in the fridge before serving.
