- Add the peppermint extract and green food coloring. Mix well, adjusting the green shade to your preference.
- Stir in the softened vanilla ice cream until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese and ice cream mixture, creating a light and airy filling.
3: Assemble the Pie
- Pour the mint filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Smooth the top for a polished finish.
4: Garnish and Chill
