Method

Prepare the Crust

If using a homemade crust, mix 2 cups crushed chocolate sandwich cookies with 1/4 cup melted butter. Press into a 9-inch pie dish and refrigerate to set.

Make the Filling

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and free of lumps.
Slowly pour in the sweetened condensed milk while continuing to beat on medium speed. Scrape down the sides to ensure everything is incorporated.
Fold in the peppermint extract. Gently fold in the whipped topping using a spatula until no streaks remain.

Create the Swirl

Divide the filling into two bowls. Leave one white. Add a few drops of green food coloring to the second bowl and stir until you reach the desired shamrock shade.
Drop alternating spoonfuls of the white and green filling into the prepared crust.
Use a butter knife or skewer to gently swirl the two colors together, creating a marble effect.

Chill and Set

Place the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 to 6 hours, or ideally overnight, to firm up.
Optional: Drizzle with chocolate ganache before serving for extra flair.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps. For clean slices, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry between cuts. Store in the refrigerator, covered, or freeze for up to one month. Thaw slightly before serving.
