Frozen Grasshopper Pie
This recipe appears in The Weekend Table and is an absolute family fave. I thought that as you are joining The Whole Scoop ice cream course, you deserved this treat more than most, thus we are sharing it here!
This ice cream ‘pie’ is a little bit addictive, especially if you love the peppermint chocolate combo as much as our family does. It will keep in the freezer for up to a month, but good luck with that! You can make it well in advance of needing it. It keeps extremely well if you wrap it correctly and then forget that it exists.
FLAVOUR PAIRINGS:
Well obviously Creme de Menthe!
