So, our family is divided on peppermint. Half of us love it, half of us don’t love it. I’m in the half that doesn’t, if it’s too peppermint-y and sugar-y, I’m out. I just do not like hard candies. My husband doesn’t like peppermint at all, however, we both liked this fluffy peppermint pie! It’s light and airy!

It’s not overwhelming with peppermint candy flavor, plus you can control how much you peppermint flavor you want, when you add the peppermint extract and the peppermint crunch on top.

It has small bits and pieces of peppermint in white chocolate kisses and this dessert reminds me of those Hershey’s Candy Cane Kisses. Yum!

Instructions How to Make White Chocolate Peppermint Mousse Pie

Graham Cracker Crust

Use a prepared graham cracker crust or mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar together in a medium bowl until combined.
Once combined press the mixture into the bottom of the dish or pan and up the sides as far as you want it to go up, it will be thick and fits into a 9-inch pie plate.
Make sure the crust is pressed together tight, you can use the bottom of a measuring cup to press it down firmer.
Bake this crust for 10 minutes for 7-8 minutes at 350°F. Let cool all the way before adding filling.
You can also use the option of chilling the crust for 2 hours before using in your recipe.

White Chocolate Peppermint Mousse Filling

Over medium heat, in a saucepan, heat ¾ cup heavy cream in saucepan until hot, almost to boiling, but not boiling, then remove from heat.
Stir in the white chocolate until it’s melted and then stir in peppermint extract and let the melted white chocolate cool completely.
In a bowl, using mixer, beat ¾ cup heavy cream until firm peaks form. Set aside.
In a large bowl, using mixer, beat the cream cheese until whipped. Set aside.
Fold the cooled white chocolate mixture gently into whipped cream mixture until combined and then spoon into the cream cheese mixture and continue folding until mixed.
Pour into prepared graham cracker pie crust.

Whipped Topping and Goodies On Top

Using an electric mixer, beat 1 ½ cups heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
Spread whipped cream over peppermint cheesecake mousse.
Set in fridge for a few hours to set up.
Garnish with candy cane crushed bits right before serving.

Tips for Pie

It is important to make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before starting the recipe, otherwise the mixture will not combine properly, and you may end up with chunks of cream cheese throughout your pie.
You can also substitute your graham cracker pie for an Oreo cookie crust, either premade or homemade Oreo Crust for a chocolate variation!
Make sure the white chocolate has cooled down before adding it to the whipped cream mixture for best results in the filling.
Do not add too much peppermint extract. I only used a quarter teaspoon, because I added the crushed peppermint on top. If you want more, that’s cool, just know that peppermint flavor is extreme, so a little goes a long way when flavoring desserts.

Storing Your Peppermint White Chocolate Cream Pie

How long does peppermint cream pie last in the fridge?

It will keep for about 3 to 4 days in the fridge; refrigerate covered loosely with aluminum foil or plastic wrap in the refrigerator.

More Variations

Add some Holiday chopped Oreo cookies to your pie filling. Oreo makes the Holiday edition that has the red color cream in the middle of the cookies! YUM!
Swap red and white crushed peppermint candies with red, white and green peppermint candies for a festive touch.
