Grasshopper Pie
This easy Grasshopper Pie recipe has a delicious and creamy mint filling on top of an Oreo cookie crust. It's one of my favorite no-bake desserts and can be made with or without alcohol.

Oreos: Use whole Oreo cookies (don't scrape the cream out.) For extra minty flavor, use Mint Oreos!
Marshmallows: You could substitute 7.5 oz container of marshmallow fluff.
Non Alcoholic Grasshopper Pie: Pie: Omit the liquors, and replace with ¾ teaspoon peppermint extract and ½ teaspoon cocoa powder (added at the same time the liquors were added).
Make Ahead and Freezing Instructions:Cover prepared pie tightly with plastic wrap and aluminum foil and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving. The Oreo crust can be made ahead, stored at room temperature for a day or two or cover well and freeze for up to 2 months.

I have been in search of the perfect grasshopper pie and I am sadly still searching. This one seemed promising but turned out with such a wildly marshmallowy texture. It did set up absolutely beautifully, though. It LOOKS gorgeous and the flavors are great and the recipe itself was easy enough. It is just the texture. I am looking for creamy and this was not it.
Did not like nor did anyone in my family. The consistency was very rubbery with new marshmallows. Thought I would love because the ingredients were so interesting. Ate a few bites and threw away. Very disappointing
OMG BEST RECIPE EVER I LOVE THE GRASSHOPPERS
Amazing! Better than mint chip ice cream!
To Die for really good and easy
Very disappointed. It was liquid. It never solidified. The taste was okay but it never set up
THIS RECIPE IS FANTASTIC! Thanks for sharing!
