Frozen Chocolate Mint Pie image

This refreshing pie was featured at a small resort my family visited regularly as I was growing up. When I make it now, I relish compliments from tasters along with fond memories of sunny days at the beach and good home cooking.

This pie was a disappointment. It was too minty and the filling was too runny.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used crushed Oreos instead of graham crackers for the crust.

I didn't have any chocolate chips on hand, so I used chopped up Andes mints instead. It turned out great!
