Ingredients

Crust

1 1/2 cups (18 cookies) crushed chocolate sandwich cookies

1/4 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, melted

Filling

4 ounces semi-sweet baking chocolate

3 large Land O Lakes® Eggs

1/2 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract

Crust

1/4 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, melted

Topping

Land O Lakes® Heavy Whipping Cream, sweetened, whipped

How to make

  1. STEP 1

    Stir together all crust ingredients. Press onto bottom and up sides of 9-inch pie pan. Refrigerate 10 minutes.

  2. STEP 2

    Meanwhile, finely chop chocolate; place into small microwave-safe bowl. Melt chocolate in microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until completely melted and smooth. Set aside.  

  3. STEP 3

    Using wire whisk, combine eggs and granulated sugar in heavy-bottomed 4-quart saucepan. Heat over low heat, whisking constantly, 5-7 minutes or until mixture reaches 160°F. Set aside to cool.

  4. STEP 4

    Combine 3/4 cup butter and powdered sugar in medium bowl. Using hand mixer or stand mixer, beat on medium-high speed 2 minutes or until fluffy and light in color. Add cooled melted chocolate and egg mixture; beat 3 minutes. Add peppermint extract; beat 30 seconds longer.  

  5. STEP 5

    Spread filling into chilled crust. Cover; refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight until set. Let stand at room temperature 10 minutes to make slicing easier. Top with whipped cream to serve.

Tip #1

Cover pie with plastic wrap and store any leftovers refrigerated up to 5 days.
