Peppermint Pie

A quick recipe for a delicious dessert.

Ingredients:

1 ready-made chocolate cookie crust
1 Eight ounce package of cream cheese
1 Fourteen ounce can of sweetened condensed milk
3 tablespoons creme de menthe
1 Eight ounce container of cool-whip
Optional: food color.

Beat cream cheese until fluffy.  Gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Strir in creme de menthe. If you are coloring the pie, this is the time to do so. If its green creme de menthe, add green... but  the clear creme de menthe with red food coloring does seem to give a greater contrast with the chocolate crust. Your choice. Lastly, fold in whipped topping, andpour into the pie crust. freeze until set, or 4 hours.  makes 8 servings.
