Description
A cool, minty no-bake dessert that captures the spirit of the classic Shamrock Shake in a sliceable, shareable form.
Ingredients
- 12 full sheets graham crackers
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 0.5 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
- 2.5 cups milk, cold
- 0.25 tsp green food coloring
- 2 tsp mint extract
- 1 box (5.1 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
Instructions
- Prepare the pie crust by pulsing graham crackers and brown sugar in a food processor until fine. Slowly drizzle in melted butter until mixture resembles wet sand. Press into a greased 9-inch pie dish and freeze for 15–20 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together cold milk, food coloring, and mint extract until combined. Gradually add instant pudding mix, whisking for 2–3 minutes until thickened. Let sit for 5 minutes.
- Gently fold in thawed whipped topping until smooth. Spoon filling into the frozen crust and smooth the top. Cover loosely and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes. Garnish as desired and serve cold.
Notes
For best results, keep all ingredients cold and pack the crust firmly. Adjust mint intensity to taste and feel free to experiment with different crust options.
