Actually, this is about Grasshopper Pie. But Grasshopper Pie reminds me of one of my favorite jokes.
A grasshopper walks into a bar and the bartender says, ”Hey, we have a drink named after you!”
The grasshopper looks surprised and says, ”You have a drink named Steve?’
Whether you call it Grasshopper Pie or Steve, it still tastes great!
Ingredients
25 chocolate sandwich cookies (I use Oreos)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cups marshmallow creme
1/4 cup creme de menthe liqueur
2 cups whipping cream
Directions
Crush cookies and set aside 1/4 cup of crumbs. Place remaining crumbs in a medium bowl and mix in melted butter. Press mixture firmly into bottom and sides of a 9 inch pie pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whip together marshmallow creme and creme de menthe until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form, then fold into marshmallow mixture. Pour mixture into pan and sprinkle reserved cookie crumbs on top. Freeze at least 2 hours, until firm. Remove from freezer 20 minutes before serving to soften slightly.
That look so good, but I think I am going to gain weight following you.
It’s Southern food. We work it off gardening and other hobbies!!
I can tell that you do . . . you are getting way too much done in a day from what I can tell!
On those good days!! 🙂
LOL my husband’s name is Steve cute joke.
You have to make the pie for him! 🙂
OMGoodness, that’s my favorite joke too! I’ve told it so many times my family is sick of it. Except in my version the grasshopper is named Frank. LOL
Frank is even funnier than Steve! 🙂
