Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • Oreo Crust
  • 25 Oreo cookies
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • Mint Filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese cold
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon mint extract
  • 3 –4 drops green food coloring
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream cold

Method
 

  1. Crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
  2. Mix cookie crumbs with melted butter and press firmly into a 9-inch pie dish. Freeze while preparing filling.
  3. Beat cold cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add powdered sugar, salt, mint extract, and green food coloring. Beat until fully combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream to stiff peaks.
  6. Gently fold whipped cream into the mint cream cheese mixture until fluffy.
  7. Spread filling evenly into chilled crust.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or freeze for 30–60 minutes until set.
  9. Slice with a warm knife and serve.

Notes

Use cold cream cheese and heavy cream for best texture. Color filling slightly darker than desired—it will lighten once whipped cream is folded in.
