Recipe Information
Grasshopper Pie
Cultural Context
Grasshopper Pie originated in the United States, becoming popular in the mid-20th century as a no-bake dessert. Its vibrant green color and minty flavor make it a festive choice for gatherings, especially around holidays. Today, variations include different crusts and flavor profiles, but the classic mint-chocolate combination remains beloved.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Melt 1/4 cup of butter in a saucepan.
Crush chocolate wafer cookies to make 1.5 cups of crumbs.
Mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter in a 9-inch pie pan, pressing it firmly against the bottom and sides.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes and then let it cool.
In a saucepan over low heat, combine 1/2 cup of milk and 3 cups of miniature marshmallows, stirring constantly until melted.
Once melted, pour the marshmallow mixture into a bowl and chill until thickened.
In a chilled bowl, beat 1.5 cups of whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
Gradually stir in 1/4 cup of creme de menthe and 3 tablespoons of creme de cacao into the marshmallow mixture until blended.
Fold the whipped cream into the marshmallow mixture gently to avoid deflating the cream.
Add a few drops of green food coloring and mix gently.
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and use an offset spatula to create a swirl on top.
Chill the pie in the freezer for at least 4 hours.
