Tips:
- Use a quality chocolate mint candy. This will ensure that your pie has a rich and flavorful taste.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can crush the chocolate mint candies in a resealable plastic bag with a rolling pin.
- Be sure to chill the pie crust before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
- When making the ganache, be sure to heat the cream until it is just simmering. Do not boil the cream, as this will cause the ganache to seize.
- Allow the pie to chill for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the ganache to set and the flavors to meld.
Conclusion:
Chocolate mint candy pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy ganache filling and chocolate mint candy crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give chocolate mint candy pie a try.
