A classic Grasshopper Pie featuring a rich chocolate crust and refreshing mint cream filling, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup green crème de menthe
  • 1/2 cup white crème de cacao
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Chocolate shavings (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, combine chocolate cookie crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Press this mixture into the bottom of a pie dish to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes and then remove to cool completely.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  3. Whip the heavy cream in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
  4. Add the green crème de menthe and white crème de cacao to the mixture, folding gently until combined.
  5. Pour the filling into the cooled chocolate crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
  6. Before serving, garnish with chocolate shavings for that extra touch of elegance.

Notes

Allow the pie to set for as long as possible for the best texture—overnight chilling is ideal if you have the time. For a non-alcoholic version, swap the liqueurs with mint extract and additional heavy cream.
