Idiot Proof Grasshopper Pie
Hey good afternoon my fellow Idiots! Welcome back for another episode of Idiot Proof Cooking. Today we're making a grasshopper pie, which is essentially a mint oreo pie...imagine a mint oreo but in pie form...thats what this is! Mint Oreo is seriously one of my favourite flavour combinations of all time. When Dairy Queen used to have the mint oreo blizzard, it was the only thing I would buy there...now they only do it on special occasions..what nonsense. Anyways, back to grasshopper pie- this is seriously easy to make and pretty much no bake...I mean, you have to bake the pie crust, but the filling you don't bake...so like I said, easy! If you're a fan of mint oreo- you will love this.

I love to share my love of cooking and of good, healthy food with as many people as possible, and making videos is just one more great way to share.
In this video, I show you how to make an EASY and healthier version of a traditional Chocolate Mint Grasshopper Pie! It's vegan too. It's one of my favorite dessert combinations and my recipe has been loved by my family and friends (even those that are easily scared by tofu and spinach!).
It tastes EXACTLY like an ice cream pie...NO ONE will know it's not ice cream-I promise! My 11 year old niece LOVES it!

Two Versions of Grasshopper Pie - Which Do YOU like the Best?
I love bringing back my childhood memories with favorite foods I remember growing up with. This was a favorite pie I remember during the holidays or when my mom would make it for when my parents hosted Pinochle at our house. There usually were left overs and I loved when I could have a piece of this pie. And yes, it does have alcohol in it. This pie is lite, fluffy, a hint of mint and oh so wonderfully delicious.
Did you know that the grasshopper drink originated around 1918 and the recipe for the pie was developed around the 1950’s?
I made two different versions of this pie. Why? Because I couldn’t make up my mind which pie I liked best. I think I’m leaning more towards the traditional (1) marshmallow cream recipe vs. (2) the cream cheese recipe. Both are amazing but you can decide. I’d love to know what you think. Note: I chose not to use the green food coloring. I thought it had a nice green color already

Grasshopper Pie ~ Southern Grasshopper Pie Recipe ~ Piesgiving ~ Noreen's Kitchen
I am back with another installment in our Piesgiving celebration and on a Torani Friday no less! Here we have one that was a huge request over the past year, the Southern Grasshopper Pie! A delicious combination of mint and chocolate and it is super easy to make and even easier to eat. I warn you though this pie is rich and addictive!
You won't believe how simple this pie is to make. I have made a chocolate cookie crumb crust, but you can use a store bought version. If you want to make your own, you can simply mix 2 cups of chocolate cookies or chocolate graham crackers with 4 tablespoons of melted butter and mix well until it reaches the consistency of wet sand. Then press into a 9 inch pie plate. Put this in the fridge to set while you make the filling.
The filling is super easy as well! I used one 16 ounce tub of marshmallow fluff, added Creme De Menthe Torani syrup to flavor and two cups of whipped cream. Then poured everything into that pie shell and placed it back in the fridge for at least four hours, but overnight is better.
I decorated my pie by placing eight swirls of whipped cream around the pie and one in the center. I also put an unwrapped Ande's mint into each whipped cream swirl then I grated an Ande's mint over the whole pie using my micro plane. Yes, it was that easy!
I will tell you that this pie filling is a bit soft. If you want to have an easy time of slicing, place the pie in the freezer for about 15 minutes before slicing that way you can slice with ease and confidence. If you are a home canner and keep instant clear jel, only the instant kind will work, on hand you can toss a couple tablespoons of that into the filling when you mix it. This will stabilize the filling and make it hold up when sliced. I love to have ingredients like that on hand for things like this. I also stabilize my whipped cream with that as well!
So simple and so delicious! If you don't have Torani syrup, you can also sub out for 1/4 cup of creme de menthe liqueur or add 1 teaspoon of peppermint extract and a few drops of green food color to your desired hue. I actually added a bit more of the Wilton Color perfect food color to my pie to get it just right!
I think this pie is perfect for the holidays or anytime! Great option for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter or just Tuesday!
I hope you give this southern tradition grasshopper pie a try and I hope you love it!
