Cool, creamy, and irresistibly festive, this Frozen Peppermint Pie is the ultimate no-bake dessert for the holiday season and beyond. A buttery chocolate cookie crust sets the stage for a luscious filling made with velvety cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and a refreshing hint of peppermint extract. Swirls of whipped cream add a light, airy texture, while optional red food coloring creates a delightful pink hue to complement the crushed peppermint candy garnish. Ready in just 20 minutes of prep time (plus freezing), this pie is perfect for entertaining or satisfying a sweet tooth on a hot summer day. Serve it frozen and watch it disappear slice by slice!
In a medium bowl, combine the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Press the cookie mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Place the crust in the freezer to set while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the sweetened condensed milk and peppermint extract to the cream cheese. Beat until fully incorporated and smooth.
If desired, add red food coloring to the filling mixture and stir until the color is evenly distributed.
Gently fold in the whipped heavy cream until the mixture is light and fluffy, being careful not to overmix.
Remove the pie crust from the freezer and pour the peppermint filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap or foil and freeze for at least 6 hours or until completely firm.
Before serving, garnish with additional whipped cream and crushed peppermint candies, if desired.
Slice and serve the pie frozen for a delightful peppermint treat!
