Ingredients

Crust:

  • 2 cups Oreo cookies 24-26, finely crushed
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted

Filling:

  • 8 oz. cream cheese softened
  • 14 oz. sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 tbsp. lemon juice from concentrate
  • ¼ cup creme de menthe
  • ¼ cup creme de cacao
  • 2 cups Cool Whip thawed
  • 3 drops green food coloring

Instructions

  • Crush the cookies using your food processor, and add the melted butter
  • Press firmly into your greased 9” pie plate and chill while you are making the filling.
  • (TIP: make sure your pie plate has a wide rim on it or use a deep dish pie plate. I used an aluminum foil pie plate since I'm still at the trailer)
  • In a large mixing bowl, whip the cream cheese until fluffy (tip: make sure the cream cheese is really soft)
  • Gradually add in the sweetened condensed milk until smooth
  • Stir in the lemon juice and the liqueurs - (tip: I used a whisk to really mix it well - the cream cheese tends to be a bit lumpy)
  • Fold in the Cool Whip.
  • Chill the filling for 20 minutes before you build your pie.
  • Pour the filling into the cookie pie crust and smooth the top with some swirls with your knife.
  • Put in the fridge for 4 hours until it is set.
