Ingredients
- 20 chocolate wafer cookies, such as Nabisco Famous Chocolate Wafers
- 3 tablespoons light butter
- 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
- One 7 1/2-ounce jar marshmallow creme
- 15 hard peppermint candies, crushed (about 1/2 cup)
- 2 tablespoons low-fat (1-percent) milk
- 1 1/2 cups fat-free non-dairy whipped topping
Directions
Put the cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add the butter and process until crumbly. Press the crumb mixture evenly onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
Soften the gelatin in 1/4 cup water for 5 minutes and set aside. Combine the marshmallow creme, candies and milk in a small saucepan over low heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the candy melts, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the marshmallow mixture to a large bowl. Stir in the gelatin mixture until blended. Let cool to room temperature; fold in the whipped topping. Pour the mixture into the crust. Chill until set, at least 4 to 6 hours.
