Reviews
This pie was not well received by myself or the family. I found it too minty, too sweet, and too rich. But we rarely eat jarred marshmallow or heavy cream. It’s a fun pie to make if you have the patience to let everything set. If I ever was to make it again I would use a bit less creme de menthe and use dark chocolate chunks rather than mint candies.
