Mini Grasshopper Ice Cream Pies

My absolute favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip. There’s just something about the combination of mint and chocolate. It’s sweet and refreshing. These mini grasshopper ice cream pies are easy to make and are so delicious. I especially love the Oreo crust—which is simply an oreo placed at the bottom of the cup!

Grasshopper Desserts

“Grasshopper” treats get their name from the green color. Grasshopper pies are usually made with a cream filling and flavored with creme de menthe. Our ice cream version is a delicious frozen variation. I used my favorite brand of mint chip ice cream (Turkey Hill), but you can use any kind you’d like. Cookies and mint ice cream would be perfect for these too!

You can easily make a grasshopper ice cream pie in a 9-inch oreo crust like our peppermint ice cream pie, but I like the mini portion size that cupcake liners create. This recipe makes 12 mini pies and can be doubled or tripled to fit your needs. Our family loves these.
