Ingredients

• 24 pieces Chocolate sandwich cookies
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1.5 quarts Mint chocolate chip ice cream, softened
• 2 tablespoons Crème de menthe liqueur
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate shavings or chocolate chips (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until they form fine crumbs.

Step 2

Transfer the cookie crumbs to a medium-sized bowl and mix in the melted butter until evenly combined.

Step 3

Press the cookie crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate to form the crust. Place the crust in the freezer to set for 10-15 minutes.

Step 4

In a large bowl, stir the softened mint chocolate chip ice cream together with the crème de menthe until smooth and well combined.

Step 5

Spoon the ice cream mixture into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Freeze the pie for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

Step 6

Just before serving, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together in a medium bowl using a hand mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form.

Step 7

Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the top of the frozen pie in an even layer.

Step 8

Garnish the pie with dark chocolate shavings or chocolate chips.

Step 9

Slice and serve immediately, or store the pie in the freezer for up to 1 week.
