Luck of the Irish Creme de Menthe Pie image

You are going to feel like the luckiest person in the world when you take your first bite of this no-bake pie. Light and fluffy with a hint of mint flavor, it's delicious. Each bite just melts in your mouth. We tried it with a chocolate pie crust and the flavor combination reminds us of Junior Mints! It's a very festive dessert.

Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 4

30 large marshmallows
1/2 c crème de menthe
1 pt whipping cream (whipped)
1 graham cracker crust or chocolate cookie crust

  • 4. Chill overnight or at least 2 hours.
  • 5. NOTE 1: Don't be tempted to put in more than 1/2 cup Creme de Menthe. If you do it will be too liquidly and it won't set up good.
  • 6. NOTE 2: To make this non-alcoholic, replace the Crème de Menthe with 1-1/2 to 2 teaspoons (taste after adding 1-1/2 teaspoons) of peppermint or spearmint extract to the unwhipped whipping cream.
