Creamy Chocolate Mint Pie
This recipe was adapted from Chocolate Covered Katie. I wanted to make it soy free, and I came up with this decadently creamy rendition! This recipe could easily be turned into a Peppermint Mocha Cream Pie, by adding a teaspoon of instant coffee. I haven’t tried it yet, because I love this version of the pie much! If you try it, let me know how you like it.
