Notes
- Oreo cookie crust: A store-bought crust or a homemade Oreo pie crust will work.
- Marshmallow creme: The marshmallow cream adds sweetness and stability. It takes the place of using gelatin for structure.
- Crème de menthe: The liqueur gives the pie flavor and color. I've given a nonalcoholic substitute above the recipe.
- Heavy whipping cream: If you'd like tips, check out this post on making homemade whipped cream.
