Categories     dessert

Time 2h40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

32 chocolate sandwich cookies
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Two 7-ounce containers marshmallow creme
2/3 cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons creme de menthe liqueur, or more to taste
2 tablespoons creme de cacao liqueur
1 to 2 drops green food coloring, optional
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Throw the cookies and melted butter into a food processor and pulverize. (Or, if you have some aggression or energy to expend, you can crush them in a large resealable plastic bag using a rolling pin!) Set a small handful of crumbs aside to sprinkle over the finished pie. Pour the rest into a pie pan and press into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Set aside.
  • Heat the marshmallow and half-and-half in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly. As soon as it's all melted and combined, place the saucepan in a bowl of ice to cool down quickly. (Stirring occasionally will hasten this process.) Once cool, add the creme de menthe and creme de cacao. Taste and add more creme de menthe if needed. Add the green food coloring if using.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the cream until stiff. Pour the cold marshmallow mixture into the whipped cream and fold together gently. Pour the filling into the chocolate crust. Sprinkle over the reserved cookie crumbs.
  • Freeze until very firm, about 2 hours. Remove from the freezer 10 minutes or so before you want to slice and serve.

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 23

For the Crust:
24 chocolate sandwich cookies (9.7 ounces; 270g) ( homemade or store-bought)
2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter (1 ounce; 30g)
2 tablespoons heavy cream (1 ounce; 30g)
1/2 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use about half as much by volume
For the Filling:
4 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar (5 1/4 ounces; 150g)
1/4 cup Fernet Branca (2 ounces; 60g); see note
1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use about half as much by volume
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract, to taste (see note)
1 to 3 drops green food coloring (optional)
1 1/2 cups heavy cream (12 ounces; 310g)
4 ounces (110g) dark chocolate, melted
For the Fudge Topping:
1 cup sugar (7 ounces; 200g)
1/2 cup cocoa nibs (2 ounces; 60g)
2 tablespoons molasses (1 ounce; 30g), not blackstrap
1/4 cup grapeseed oil or any other neutral oil (1 1/2 ounces; 40g)
1/2 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use about half as much by volume
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy cream (4 ounces; 110g), cold
Additional whipped cream and melted chocolate for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • For the Crust: In a food processor, blitz cookies until they are fully crumbled. Drizzle in melted butter and cream and add salt. Pulse to combine. (Alternatively, place cookies in a large zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin. Transfer crumbs to a mixing bowl and combine with butter, cream, and salt.) Transfer crumb mixture to a deep-dish 9-inch pie plate. Using your hands or the back of a measuring cup, press crumbs evenly along walls and bottom of pie plate. Set aside.
  • For the Filling: Fill a medium saucepot with at least 1 1/2 inches water and bring to a simmer. In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together eggs, sugar, Fernet Branca, and salt. Place bowl over pot of simmering water. Stirring constantly with a flexible rubber spatula, heat egg mixture until it reaches 165°F (74°C), about 10 minutes.
  • Remove bowl from heat and place on stand mixer with whip attachment. Whip egg mixture on high until it becomes thick and pale and doubles in volume, about 10 minutes. Reduce speed to low and add peppermint extract and food coloring (if using). Mix to combine and transfer egg mixture to a wide bowl.
  • In stand mixer bowl (no need to wash it), whip cream until it reaches soft peaks. Gently fold whipped cream into egg mixture. Using a fork, drizzle streaks of melted chocolate over the entire surface of the mint mousse. Set bowl of mousse in refrigerator until chocolate hardens, about 5 minutes. Using a flexible rubber spatula, crack chocolate streaks into 1-inch pieces and fold into mousse. Repeat the chocolate-drizzling and folding procedure until no more chocolate remains. Pour mint mousse into prepared cookie crust and freeze for at least 6 hours, and preferably overnight.
  • For the Fudge Topping: Line a rimmed baking sheet with a Silpat or well-greased piece of aluminum foil. In a 1-quart saucepot, combine sugar with 1/4 cup water. Cover and bring to a simmer over medium heat, about 4 minutes. Remove lid and cook sugar syrup until it becomes a deep golden brown. Remove from heat. Add cocoa nibs and stir to combine. Carefully pour caramel onto lined baking sheet and allow to fully set and cool, about 1 hour.
  • With a rolling pin, crack caramel into 2- to 3-inch pieces. Transfer pieces to a food processor and pulse until caramel is mostly finely ground. Add molasses, oil, salt, and vanilla and process until combined. With food processor running, slowly drizzle in chilled cream, stopping to scrape down bowl's sides if needed. Transfer mixture to a piping bag fitted with a plain #17 tip and chill for at least 1 hour before piping.
  • To Finish: Remove pie from freezer and garnish the top with fudge in a crisscross pattern. Fill a piping bag fitted with a #32 open star tip with whipped cream and pipe along the border. Drizzle the edges with melted chocolate, if desired. Using a knife dipped in hot water, cut pie into 8 to 12 slices and serve with extra fudge on the side.

  • Meanwhile, in 3-quart saucepan, heat milk and marshmallows over low heat, stirring constantly, just until marshmallows are melted.
