How to Make Quick Christmas Peppermint Pie
Soften Cream Cheese: Allow the cream cheese to sit at room temperature for 1-2 hours until it's soft.
Whip Cream: In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Blend Cheese and Sugar: In a separate bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar and cream them until smooth.
Add Flavorings: Mix in the vanilla extract, peppermint extract, and optional food coloring.
Fold in Whipped Cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
Fill the Crust: Pour the filling into the prepared Oreo crust, smoothing it out evenly.
Top it Off: Spread a layer of Cool Whip and sprinkle with crushed peppermint candy.
Chill: Refrigerate the pie for at least 1-2 hours before serving.
Garnish with extra crushed candy on individual slices for presentation.
