📝 Preparation Steps
1
Place the cookies and melted butter into the bowl of a food processor and pulverize (or, if you have some aggressions or energy to expend, you can crush them in a large zip-top bag). Press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan, reserving a few to sprinkle over the pie later. Place the crust in the freezer while you make the filling, at least ⏱️ 15 minutes.
2
In a saucepan, heat the marshmallows and half-and-half over low heat, stirring constantly. As soon as it's all melted and combined, place saucepan in a bowl of ice to cool down quickly. (Stirring occasionally will hasten this process.) Once cool, add creme de menthe and creme de cacao. Taste and add more creme de menthe if needed. Add one to two drops green food coloring, if using.

3
In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff. Pour the cold marshmallow mixture into the whipped cream and fold together gently.
4
Pour the filling into the chocolate crust. Sprinkle the reserved cookie crumbs over the top. Place the pie in the freezer and freeze until very firm, at least ⏱️ 2 hours. Remove from the freezer ⏱️ 10 minutes or so before you want to slice and serve.
