I got this recipe from a friend on Facebook. Simple and delicious, as if we need another way to eat thin mint cookies! Ingredients:
32 thin mint cookies |
3 tablespoons butter, melted |
2 cups milk, cold |
2 (3 1/2 ounce) packages jell-o chocolate fudge flavor pudding and pie filling |
1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract |
12 ounces cool whip topping, thawed, divided use |
Directions:
1. Remove 10 cookies and set aside.
2. Crush or process remaining cookies, then mix them with the butter. Press firmly onto bottom and up side of 9-inch pie plate.
3. Pour milk into large bowl. Add both boxes of pudding mix and beat with wire whisk 2 minutes or until well blended. (Mixture will be thick.).
4. Spoon out 1 1/4 cup of pudding into another bowl and stir in peppermint extract. Pour peppermint pudding mixture over crust. To remaining pudding mix, add in 1 cup of whipped topping. Spread the pudding/whipped topping layer of the mint layer.
5. Chop remaining cookies and combine them with about 2 1/2 cups (doesn’t have to be precise) whipped topping. Spread this mixture over the top. The pie might look kind of messy at this point, so clean up the edges.
6. Chill for 4 hours or until set.
7. To garnish, place remaining whipped topping in a plastic zipper bag. Snip off a corner of the bag (about 1/2 inch up from corner) and squeeze whipped topping around sides decoratively.
8. To make thin zig-zags, pour COLD chocolate syrup into a small zipper bag. Snip a very, very tiny cut off the bottom corner and drizzle away!
