Mint Cookies And Cream Cookie Pie Food

COOKIES & CREAM PIE (OREO)

Steps:

• Preheat to 350°F (177°C).
• In a food processor or blender, pulse 20 Oreos (including the cream filling) into a fine crumb. You should have about 2 cups, or 220g. Stir the Oreo crumbs and melted butter together. Press tightly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes. Allow to cool as you prepare the filling.
• Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the cold heavy cream into stiff peaks on medium-high speed, about 4 minutes. Set aside. Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk or paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until perfectly smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract and beat on medium-high speed until combined. Make sure there are no large lumps of cream cheese. If there are lumps, keep beating until smooth.
• Using your mixer on low speed or a rubber spatula, fold the whipped cream and chopped Oreos into the cream cheese mixture until combined. This takes several turns of your rubber spatula. Combine slowly as you don't want to deflate all the air in the whipped cream.
• Spread filling into cooled crust. Use an offset spatula to smooth down the top.
• Cover tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 6 hours and up to 2 days. The longer refrigerated, the better the pie will set up. You could also freeze the pie for at least 4 hours and up to 3 months. The crust is a little difficult to eat frozen, though.
• Feel free to garnish the pie with whipped cream. I used Ateco 849 piping tip for the whipped cream in the pictured pie. Using a clean sharp knife, cut into slices for serving. For neat slices, wipe the knife clean between each slice.
• Cover and store leftover pie in the refrigerator or freezer for up to 5 days.

MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE-CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Spread 1 pint of the ice cream in pie crust. Sprinkle 1 cup of the crushed cookies over ice cream. Cover and freeze 1 hour.
• Spread remaining pint of ice cream over cookies. Cover and freeze about 3 hours or until firm.
• Let stand at room temperature about 10 minutes before cutting. Serve with fudge topping; sprinkle with remaining cookies. Cover and freeze any remaining pie.

CHOCOLATE MINT PIE

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 cups cookie crumbs and melted butter or margarine. Press firmly over bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie pan. Freeze.
• Spread half of softened ice cream in crust. Drizzle 2 tablespoons creme de menthe and sprinkle 1/2 cup cookie crumbs over the ice cream. Repeat. Freeze till firm.
• In a clean bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add salt and cream of tartar, and beat until slightly stiff. Gradually beat in sugar until peaks form. Fold in 2 teaspoons creme de menthe. Spread meringue over pie, and seal to edges. Freeze up to 24 hours.
• Just before serving, broil until top is golden.

MINT COOKIES AND CREAM COOKIE PIE

Steps:

• PREP! Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat the baking sheet and chosen baking pan with baking spray.
• MIX THE DRY! In a medium bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, milk powder, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
• MIX THE WET AND COMBINE! In a large bowl, and using a wooden spoon or sturdy rubber spatula, mix the butter and both sugars, flexing your muscles for about 2 minutes, until they are fully combined. Add the egg, mint, and vanilla and stir until combined and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. (If your dough is exceptionally wet-if it looks really shiny or oily-your butter was likely too hot. Throw it in the fridge for a few minutes to firm up before continuing on.)
• CHOCOLATE TIME! Fold in the white chocolate chips, chocolate chips, and crushed cookies. (Save a few tablespoons of each for the next step, though.)
• SPREAD, SPRINKLE, AND BAKE! Place the prepared baking pan on top of the baking sheet. Smoosh your dough into the bottom of the pan. Using your hands, pat the dough down evenly to the edges. Sprinkle some extra cookies and chocolate chips around the inside edge of your ring as decoration. Bake the cookie at 350°F for 18 to 20 minutes. Double-check that you set the timer; because this cookie is already dark brown it's tricky to tell by sight when it's ready to take out of the oven. The timer is your best friend! Using oven mitts, remove the baking sheet and pan from the oven and let the cookie cool completely on the baking sheet (about 25 minutes). Cut the cookie into 8 slices, like a pizza. Store the slices on a plate, wrapped well in plastic, for up to 1 week.

• Combine cream and corn syrup in heavy small saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat, whisking constantly. Remove from heat. Add chocolate and peppermint and whisk until melted and smooth. Cool to barely lukewarm, whisking occasionally, about 20 minutes. Spoon over ice cream, covering completely. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover; keep frozen.)
