Today I'm going to teach you how to make a delicious grasshopper pie. Don't worry it's not real grasshoppers. Grasshopper pie is easy to make and it's nice in the fridge to!

Supplies

For supplies you're going to need a spatula,handheld mixer, an 8 by 8 pan, two large bowls, 2 cups Oreo crumbs, 1 package mini marshmallows, green food dye, 1 small container of whip cream, a teaspoon of peppermint extract, non-stick spray, 1 cup milk, 1/4 cup butter, a fridge and time.

The Base

Before you begin spray your glass pan with your nonstick spray and set the pan aside. Put the Oreo crumbs in the bowl and add melted butter (the butter helps keep Oreo crumbs together). Put the Oreo crumbs in the base of the glass pan, and press down (fingers, fork, spatula - you choose). Place the pan with the Oreo base into the fridge for later.
