Is there anything worse than looking in the fridge and not seeing something delicious to snack on? Isn’t it the rules of quarantine that you must have a sweet treat in there at all times? We think so.

Luckily, we have an easy, delicious recipe for you to make and store away for you to munch on when that sweet tooth calls. Don’t worry, it’s so easy that it doesn’t even require baking.

If you’re a mint chocolate chip fan, you’re definitely going to want to bookmark this recipe. It’s a mint chocolate chip pie, and man, is it going to do wonders to your taste buds. Warning: It’s far from healthy, but it sure is tasty.

As we said, it’s super easy to whip up. In fact, the crust consists of just two ingredients: Oreos and butter (we warned you, didn’t we? Not healthy!).

Once that’s made, you can make your filling. You’ll need just a handful of ingredients: heavy cream, cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla and peppermint extract, and a touch of green food coloring to add some color.

Whip that all up, try not to eat the batter, and then fold in mini chocolate chips and chopped Andes mints. Yum, yum, and yum.

Then just pour the filling into the crust, garnish with more chocolate chips and mints, and refrigerate it for five hours so it hardens and cools. Then it’s ready to devour!
