Fold in whipped cream until combined.

Step 3: Pour mixture into crust and smooth the top.

Step 4: Freeze for 6+ hours or overnight. If desired, garnish the top of your pie with piped whipped topping and/or cookie crumbs or oreo pieces.

Pro Tip:

For easy slicing, remove the pie from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving. Dip a sharp knife in hot water, wipe dry, and slice for best results.

Storage

Store tightly wrapped in plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the freezer.

Recipe Tips

Use gel food coloring for a vibrant green without thinning the filling.
Add enough green food coloring to reach a deeper shade of green than you want the finished color to be because it will lighten when you fold in the whipped cream.
Freeze the chocolate pie crust before adding the filling for a firm base.
A 9-inch springform pan can also be used for easy removal and clean slices.

Additions and variations

Add mini chocolate chips to the filling for extra chocolate goodness.
Can’t find Mint Oreos? Regular Oreo cookies will be delicious as well.
Use a premade chocolate crust as a shortcut for an even easier dessert.
Drizzle chocolate syrup over the top before serving.
Use peppermint extract for a more intense mint flavor.
