Grace D. Plunk: Easy No Bake Mint N’ Chip Pie Recipe

If you only know ONE thing about me it should be that I love ice cream more than I love anything or anyone else. (Sorry, mom but it’s true…)

And if you want to know TWO things about me…

Well, then you need to buy me a double shot of vodka and I’ll spill secrets faster than a TMZ reporter.

BUT that comes with a warning:

Don’t buy me more than 4 shots unless you’re willing to bail me out of a Mexican prison.

Long story. Don’t judge.

Anyway, back to the desserts…

Today is National Chocolate Mint Day. But I don’t want a mint… I want mint n’ chip!

I need the chocolate to really dominate and I feel like chocolate MINTS lead with the minty taste. (I’ve put a lot of thought and research into this.)

Bonus tip: Always lead with your strengths – if you are a dessert, lead with CHOCOLATE.

So in honor of National Chocolate Mint Day here’s a super easy Mint N’ Chip Pie recipe to satisfy all your chocolate and mint lovin’ needs.

Easy Mint N’ Chip Pie Recipe

This dessert is a little lighter than most pies because it calls for greek yogurt instead of butter or cream. I love incorporating Greek yogurt into dessert recipes because the added protein helps give it some staying power and keep ya full! Double duty dessert Winking smile

Ingredients:

2.5 cups Greek Yogurt (plain or vanilla depending on how sweet you like it)
1 package sf Cheesecake or Vanilla Pudding Mix

Chocolate Pie crust (premade)
