Description

Mint Chocolate Cheesecake Pie – A cool, creamy no-bake dessert with a buttery graham crust and rich chocolate-mint filling. Refreshing, indulgent, and perfect for any occasion


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (190g) graham cracker crumbs

  • ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar

  • 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted

  • 16 ounces (450g) cream cheese, softened

  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream

  • 10 ounces (280g) semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted and cooled slightly

  • ¼ cup (30g) unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) milk

  • 2 teaspoons peppermint extract

  • Green food coloring (optional)


Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust

In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Add melted butter and stir until the mixture is evenly moistened. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch (23cm) pie plate. Refrigerate while preparing the filling to set.

2. Make the Filling Base

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract and continue mixing until well incorporated.

3. Whip the Cream

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

4. Combine Cream and Cream Cheese

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, maintaining a light and airy texture.

5. Prepare the Chocolate-Mint Mixture

In a small bowl, whisk together the melted chocolate chips, cocoa powder, and milk until smooth. Stir in peppermint extract and green food coloring (if using) until evenly blended.

6. Fold Chocolate Mixture Into Filling

Gradually fold the chocolate mixture into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the filling fluffy.

7. Assemble the Pie

Pour the filling evenly over the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.

8. Chill and Set

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the filling to firm up and flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Measuring ingredients accurately ensures the best results, especially for the crust and filling consistency.

  • For a smoother texture, beat cream cheese thoroughly before adding other ingredients.

  • This mint chocolate cheesecake pie is a crowd-pleaser at holiday parties, potlucks, and family dinners.
