Saint Patrick’s Day kicked off Week 21, and I wanted a pie
that would ring in Irish spirit. Being
the only one in my family of four who likes potatoes, many of my savory pie ideas
were just not going to happen unless I was to eat the whole pie myself… not likely. I decided I would capture that Saint. Patty’s
day mood, as well as satisfy my ice cream-loving family by making the
Easy
Grasshopper Ice Cream Pie from
Tasteofhome.com.
For the crust, I made chocolate cookie crust, using crushed Oreo
chocolate sandwich cookies and melted butter, mixed and pressed into my pie pan. The filling was mint chocolate chip ice
cream, green for Saint Patrick’s Day, softened enough to spread and smooth onto
the crust. To top off this easy pie, I sprinkled
crushed peppermint patties, drizzled Magic Shell chocolate ice cream topping,
and placed the pie in the freezer to firm up.
