Ingredients: 1 cup crushed Keebler Grasshopper Fudge Mint Cookies (16-18) 3 Tbsp hot water 1 (6oz) graham cracker pie crust (or a chocolate one) 1 (3 oz) pkg. cream cheese 1/3 cup sugar 2 Tbsp. milk 1/4 tsp peppermint extract 1 (8oz) container Cool Whip-thawed 6-10 drops green food coloring Directions:Mix cookies and hot water. Spoon into crust and gently spread to cover bottom. Beat cream cheese until smooth, gradually beat in sugar, milk, and extract. Fold in whipped topping. (The recipe says to split the mixture at this point and put food coloring in one. Too much work--I made the whole thing pale green) Add food coloring. Put dollops of mixture (some white, some green if you're going that route) into crust. Smooth top with spatula. JUST BEFORE SERVING Make berries (cinnamon candies) and holly leaves (spearmint jelly candies) and decorate top. Very festive and good |
