No Bake Peppermint Pie Recipe

I am constantly at war with the winter ‘sun.’ I use natural light to take pictures and it’s exhausting trying to find the best light in the winter months.

Early afternoon in the Fall is actually the best time for me to take pictures, it’s when I get perfect light. But the winter – there isn’t a sweet spot. It’s like a game of roulette every day, especially if we have snow!

I find myself retaking pictures often because I just can’t get them to look the way I want! It’s just all part of the job!

I don’t love the way these pictures turned out so let the pretty pink in this No Bake Peppermint Pie convince you into making it! If you like peppermint, I think you’ll love Peppermint Bark Cups , White Chocolate Peppermint Oreos , Peppermint Cheesecake Dip , Mini Peppermint Cheesecakes , and Peppermint Bark Fudge , too!

1 Oreo Pie Crust

1 cup Heavy Cream

1 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar

2 (8 oz) Cream Cheese, Softened

10 drops Red Food Coloring

2 tsp Vanilla

1 tsp Peppermint Extract

1/2 cup Crushed Candy Cane

How to Make No Bake Peppermint Pie

In a separate medium bowl, cream together 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar and 2 (8 oz) softened cream cheese.
