Category: Pies - Frozen

Crust
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
22 chocolate wafer cookies
3 tbsp sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Filling
1 cup whole milk
Pinch of salt
3 large egg yolks
2 tbsp cornstarch
6 oz good-quality white chocolate (such as Bakers or Lindt), chopped
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp green creme de menthe
2 tbsp light creme de cacao

3/4 cup chilled whipping cream

For crust: Spray 9-inch-diameter glass or ceramic pie dish with nonstick spray. Finely grind chocolate cookies and sugar in processor. Blend in butter. Press crumb mixture onto bottom and up sides of prepared dish. Freeze.

For filling: Combine milk and salt in heavy small saucepan. Bring to simmer. Whisk egg yolks and cornstarch in medium bowl to blend well. Gradually whisk in hot milk mixture. Return mixture to same saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until mixture thickens, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Add white chocolate and butter; whisk until smooth. Transfer custard to large bowl. Whisk in creme de menthe and creme de cacao. Set custard over another large bowl of ice water until cold and thick but not set, stirring often, about 30 minutes.

Whip cream in medium bowl until stiff peaks form. Stir 1/3 of whipped cream into custard. Fold in remaining whipped cream. Pour filling into crust. Freeze at least 5 hours or up to 2 days.

Garnish with shaved chocolates.
