It’s almost St. Patrick’s Day! Let’s take a break from the (artificially) green food this year and indulge in something classic like this Mint Chocolate Pie! It has all the fun flavors you’d want in a St. Paddy’s Day dessert–and it’s a no-bake recipe.
This dessert is super simple to whip up: All you need are Oreos and butter for the crust, along with chopped chocolate, heavy whipping cream, mint chocolate candies, and mint extract for the filling. Top the pie however you like!
I made a little extra whipped cream and added cocoa powder and powdered sugar for a lightly sweetened chocolate whipped cream. A sprinkle of crushed Andes Candies along with the chocolate whipped cream made the perfect finishing touch!
You could also drizzle melted chocolate over the top of the pie, or you could add green food coloring to the whipped cream if you’re really digging the green food situation.
Regardless, I absolutely think you should make this Mint Chocolate Pie for St. Patrick’s Day. Make it a meal: Start with some classic Irish Stew and a slice of Soda Bread. Turn on the tunes, (may I recommend Leahy or Natalie MacMaster?), and enjoy! Scroll on for all the instructions on how to make this sweet, simple dessert.

The filling has vanilla extract listed twice...so do we use 2 teaspoons vanilla or just one?
