Grasshopper Pie


I know the name sounds weird, but this is the best dessert ever! My little sister frequently asks for this to be her birthday cake. I promise, there aren't any real grasshoppers involved!

1 package (1 lb 2 oz) Oreo cookies
2 (8 ounces each) tubs Cool Whip
1 (16 ounce) jar hot fudge ice cream topping
1 (2 quart) carton mint chocolate chip ice cream (make sure it's green, not white)

1. Crush Oreo cookies in a bag or food processor. Add one tub of Cool Whip. Press into a 9x13 inch pan. Cover and place in freezer until set. While the Oreo crust is setting, get the ice cream out of the freezer so it can thaw enough to be spreadable.

2. Once the Oreo crust has set, spread the ice cream on top. Cover and place in freezer until set.

3. Warm up the hot fudge just enough to be spreadable. Spread on top of the set ice cream. Cover and place in freezer until set.

4. Spread 1 tub of Cool Whip on top. Cover and place in freezer until set.

Enjoy!

Tip: It is easier to cut the entire pie at once. That way it is easier to store and get out pieces as needed. The longer it sets, the harder it can be to cut.

  1. LOL I knew what this was but at first glance the title is a little disconcerting. Can't go wrong with mint chocolate chip. YUM
