Description

This Peppermint Pattie Pie is a delightful no-bake chocolate and mint dessert featuring a smooth chocolate filling infused with peppermint extract and studded with chopped York Peppermint Patties, all set in a crisp chocolate cookie crust. Perfect for holiday celebrations or anytime you crave a refreshing minty treat, this easy-to-make pie combines creamy textures with a festive flair.


Ingredients

Scale

Pie Crust

  • 1 chocolate cookie crust (store-bought or homemade)

Filling

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
  • 1/2 cup chopped York Peppermint Patties (plus extra for garnish)

Toppings (Optional)

  • Chocolate shavings
  • Crushed peppermint


Instructions

  1. Heat the Cream: In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Be careful not to boil.
  2. Melt Chocolate: Remove the cream from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until they are smooth and fully melted, creating a rich chocolate mixture.
  3. Add Peppermint Extract and Cool: Stir in the peppermint extract to infuse the mint flavor. Allow the mixture to cool for 10 to 15 minutes to avoid melting the whipped topping when folded in.
  4. Fold in Whipped Topping: Gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the cooled chocolate mixture until the filling is smooth and fluffy, ensuring a light texture.
  5. Add Peppermint Patties: Carefully fold in the chopped York Peppermint Patties to embed refreshing peppermint pieces throughout the filling.
  6. Assemble the Pie: Spoon the filling mixture into the prepared chocolate cookie crust and smooth the top with a spatula for an even surface.
  7. Chill to Set: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, allowing it to fully set and develop flavors.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, decorate the pie with extra chopped peppermint patties, chocolate shavings, or crushed peppermint to add festive texture and appeal.

Notes

  • For a stronger mint flavor, add a few extra drops of peppermint extract.
  • This pie can be made a day ahead and stored covered in the fridge, making it convenient for gatherings.
