For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate wafer cookies. If you prefer a non-alcoholic version, substitute the liqueurs with ½ teaspoon of mint extract and ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract. To prevent the crust from sticking to the pie dish, lightly grease the dish with cooking spray before pressing in the crumbs. For a smoother filling, use a whisk to stir the marshmallow mixture as it melts. The pie can be made ahead of time and stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

01 Step

02 Step
Recipe View Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9- or 10-inch pie dish. For a sturdier crust, use the bottom of a measuring cup to compact the crumbs. (5 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Refrigerate the crust for at least one hour to allow it to firm up. (60 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View In a medium saucepan, combine the warmed milk and marshmallows over medium heat. Stir constantly until the marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. (10 minutes)
05 Step

06 Step
Recipe View Once cooled, stir in the crème de menthe and crème de cacao liqueurs until well combined. (2 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View Gently fold in the whipped cream until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can deflate the whipped cream. (5 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View Pour the filling into the chilled chocolate cookie crust, spreading it evenly. (2 minutes)
09 Step
Recipe View Freeze the pie until firm, at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This will allow the filling to set completely. (240 minutes)
10 Step
Recipe View Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes to soften slightly. (10 minutes)
11 Step
Recipe View Slice the pie and garnish each slice with an additional dollop of whipped cream, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy! (2 minutes)

Mar 16, 2025The crust was a little crumbly, so next time I'll try adding a bit more butter to help it hold together better.
