9-inch pie plate.
- 1 9-inch Chocolate Cookie Crust
- 8 Oz Cream Cheese
- 1 Cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 Tsp Peppermint Extract
- 1.5 Cups Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1/2 Cup Candy Canes Crushed
- 2 Drops Red Food Coloring
Place your cream cheese in the bowl. Let it sit until it is soft. Beat it until it looks very smooth. There should be no lumps at all.
Add the powdered sugar to the bowl. Put in the peppermint extract too. Mix these on a low speed first. This prevents a big sugar cloud.
Pour the cold heavy cream into a bowl. Whip it until stiff peaks form. This means the cream stands up straight. Do not over-beat the cream now.
Fold the whipped cream into the cheese. Use a slow and gentle motion. This keeps the filling very fluffy. Add the crushed candy canes now.
Pour the mix into the chocolate crust. Spread it out with your spatula. Make the top look nice and even. It is almost ready to eat.
Put the pie in the fridge. Let it sit for four hours. Overnight is even better for the set. This makes it easy to slice.
- Use full-fat cream cheese for the best taste.
- Chill your mixing bowl before whipping the cream.
- Crush the candy canes just before adding them.
- Keep the pie very cold until you serve.
- Use a warm knife to cut clean slices.
