It was scrumptious - and so easy to make. The only change I made was using Hot Fudge Topping as a drizzle. I made it for my husband's meeting & they loved it.

This recipe was fantastic! My family devoured it on Christmas Eve - it literally was gone in minutes with people asking for more. The only change I made was based off of a previous reviewer's suggestion. Instead of melting chocolate chips for the drizzle, I chopped up Andes mints into small pieces and distributed them across the top of the pie. Everyone loved it!

I made this for a church potluck, upping the peppermint extract to 3/4tsp. It was very tasty and gone in a flash! (Oh, and I used Hard Crack ice cream topping to drizzle and it cut very nicely.)

So yummy! I whipped this up in no time, and to rave reviews!

This is good, but it didn't have the wow factor for me. It does make a nice dessert for St. Patrick's Day, so I will make it again. The only change I would make is to skip drizzling the chooclate. It tastes good, but it doesn't cut nicely. Instead, I would opt for drizzling chocolate syrup or Sprinkling chopped Andes candies on top like I saw on the recipe for Grashopper Pie.
