Steps:
- Pie Crust
- Place a piece of parchment onto your work surface and flour it very sparsely.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and the salt.
- Cut in the shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture looks like coarse meal.
- Sprinkle the teaspoon of vinegar and two tablespoons of water over the mixture
- Mix lightly and quickly with a wooden spoon, adding the remaining tablespoons of water as needed until dough just holds together
- Place the dough onto the prepared piece of parchment. Cover with an additional piece of parchment and with a rolling pin starting at the center of the dough, roll to the edge, but not over it
- Continue to roll out from the center, but never back to it every 45 degrees
- Throughout the process it will be necessary to flour the dough at various times. Gently pull back the top layer of parchment, and very lightly flour the dough. Replace the parchment and carefully turn the dough over, doing the same to the other side
- Continue rolling and flouring lightly until the dough is an even round circle about 3 inches larger than the rim of the 9-inch pie plate
- To transfer the dough to the pie plate, gently remove the top layer of parchment. Lightly flour the rolling pin and place it at one edge of the circle. Using the bottom layer of parchment, bring the edge of the dough up over the rolling pin and very lightly roll the pin to the other side of the dough. Move the pie plate under the rolling pin and gently roll the dough out over it. Carefully, fit the dough into the plate and trim any excess, leaving one inch over the rim. Fold the dough under so that it is even with the rim and crimp.
- Line the inside with a circle of parchment, add uncooked beans or rice to about 2/3 full and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Gently lift the parchment and beans out of the plate and prick the entire crust with a fork. Brush the crust with the egg wash and return to the oven to bake for an additional 15 - 20 minutes until completely golden.
- Filling
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the cornstarch, sugar, cocoa powder and salt
- Combine the heavy cream and milk in a large measuring cup. Slowly pour into the saucepan while whisking so that no lumps are formed
- Whisk in the egg yolks
- Heat over medium until just boiling and mixture thickens
- Remove from heat and whisk in the chocolate, McCormick Pure Peppermint Extract, and butter until everything is melted and well combined
- Pour into the baked pie crust. Cover the filling with a piece of plastic wrap and chill for 4 hours
- Stabilized Whipped Cream
- In a mixing bowl, beat the confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, McCormick Pure Vanilla and McCormick Pure Peppermint Extracts
- Gradually add the heavy cream and beat until stiff peaks are formed, scraping down the sides and bottom of bowl as needed
- Pipe onto the pie or spread on the top to garnish
- Add the crushed candy canes as a final touch

Tips:
- For a smoother custard, whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl over a pot of simmering water until the mixture is thick and pale yellow. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl.
- Be sure to chill the custard completely before folding in the whipped cream. This will help prevent the custard from curdling.
- If you don't have a springform pan, you can bake the pie crust in a regular 9-inch pie plate. Just be sure to trim the edges of the crust so that it doesn't hang over the sides of the plate.
- To make sure the pie is set, insert a toothpick into the center of the custard. If it comes out clean, the pie is done.
- Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to firm up.
Conclusion:
With its creamy custard filling, whipped cream topping, and chocolate cookie crust, this Peppermint Bavarian Cream Pie is a delightful dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For a more intense peppermint flavor, add a few drops of peppermint extract to the custard. Or, for a more chocolatey pie, use a chocolate wafer cookie crust instead of a graham cracker crust. No matter how you choose to make it, this pie is sure to be a hit!
