A festive and creamy No Bake Christmas Peppermint Pie featuring an Oreo cookie crust, peppermint-flavored cream cheese filling, and topped with Cool Whip and crushed candy canes for a refreshing holiday treat.

Ingredients

Scale

Pie Base

  • 1 Oreo pie crust (9-inch)

Filling

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 packages cream cheese (8 ounces each, softened)
  • 10 drops red food color
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla essence
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint flavoring
  • 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candy canes or mints

Topping

  • 1 tub Cool Whip (8 ounces)
  • Crushed peppermint candies for garnish (about 1/4 cup)

Instructions

  1. Whip the Heavy Cream: In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside for later use.
  2. Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a medium bowl, cream together the powdered sugar and softened cream cheese until smooth. Add red food coloring, vanilla extract, and peppermint extract, mixing until the color is uniform. Fold in 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies.
  3. Combine the Mixtures: Gently fold the cream cheese mixture into the whipped heavy cream. Using a low speed on your mixer, blend until thoroughly combined and smooth in consistency.
  4. Fill the Oreo Crust: Pour the combined mixture into the Oreo crust, spreading it evenly to form the base of the pie.
  5. Garnish and Chill: Spread a layer of Cool Whip on top of the pie and sprinkle crushed peppermint candies over it. Chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before serving for best results.

Notes

  • Use a 9-inch Oreo pie crust for best fit and structure.
  • Chilling the pie for at least 1 hour helps it set properly for clean slices.
  • Adjust peppermint flavoring to taste if you prefer a stronger or milder mint flavor.
  • The red food coloring is optional but adds a festive color to the pie.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
