Mint pie recipe.

Sunday, October 7, 2012
Hubby made me the ULTRA NOMMY mint pie last night. NOMMMY! I don't know where the original recipe came from (I got it via Facebook) but it's DELICIOUS! We had baked tilapia, brocoli, and Alton Brown's homemade stove top  mac and cheese. NOMNOMNOMMY!


Mint Pie:

Ingredients:
1 cup (6 ounces) Nestlé Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Mini Morsels
1 can (12 fluid ounces) Nestlé Carnation Evaporated Milk, divided
...
1 tablespoon butter
1 prepared 9-inch (6 ounces) chocolate crumb crust
1 pkg. (3.4 ounces) vanilla instant pudding and pie filling mix
1/3 cup water
1 teaspoon peppermint extract
3 to 4 drops green food coloring (optional)
1 container (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided
Additional Nestlé Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Mini Morsels, fresh mint sprigs (optional)

MICROWAVE 1 cup morsels and 1/3 cup evaporated milk in medium, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on HIGH (100%) power for 45 seconds; stir until smooth. Stir in butter; pour into crust. Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until cool to the touch.

MEANWHILE, BEAT remaining evaporated milk, pudding mix, water, peppermint extract and 3 drops food coloring in medium bowl until combined. Gently stir in 2 cups whipped topping and additional drop of food coloring, if desired. Spoon over chocolate layer.

REFRIGERATE for 2 hours or until set. Sprinkle with additional morsels. Spoon remaining whipped topping in center of pie. Garnish with fresh mint.

    Sorry Tymber but that pie sounds disgusting. And a macaroni cheese mix? What is the world coming to? It's just too easy to make from scratch. Still I'm sure it was great that you didn't have to make it.

  1. @pyejammies - Sorry, but the pie is delish! LOL And not sure what you mean about mac & cheese mix? I linked to the recipe Hubby used. He DID make it from scratch. LOL
