INGREDIENTS

16 ounce container Marshmallow cream
2 cups heavy whipping cream
¼ cup Torani Crème de Menthe Syrup OR
¼ cup Crème de Menthe Liqueur OR
1 teaspoon peppermint extract
2-3 drops green food coloring
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional whipped cream for decoration
Chocolate after dinner mints for decoration
Chocolate graham cracker pie shell

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Whip 2 cups of cream until it reaches stiff peaks. Be sure not to overbeat. Set aside.

Blend marshmallow cream with syrup or crème de menthe or extract and food color.

If, after you have blended the marshmallow cream with the crème de menthe and it is not green enough for you, just add a few drops more of food color until it reaches your desired hue.

Fold whipped cream into marshmallow cream mixture being careful not to deflate.

Pour the whipped cream mixture into the prepared pie shell and smooth to even out.

Refrigerate for at least two hour before decorating with piped whipped cream rosettes and chocolate mint candies.

Return to refrigerator. This pie is best made a day ahead and chilled overnight to ensure beautiful, clean slices.

ENJOY!
