In previous years I’ve made whoopie pies but moon pies would be fun too. I’ve made chicken pot pie for dinner as well. The kids love the treat and the teachers appreciate a minor diversion. Truth be told, I hate math and anyone who knows me well, knows this, but I love baking so this is has become a tradition.
Sometimes you need easy recipes, super easy recipes. This is one of those super easy recipes. Brownie mint pie starts with a brownie mix. You’ll notice in the photo and the recipe that I used a frozen pie crust. In the interest of time when making so many for the kids, I switched it up and used store-bought Oreo cookie crusts. A real time saver since there is no thawing time. Both types of crusts make a delicious pie. I would say it’s a matter of preference just how much chocolate you want in the pie.

I’m sadly not a fan of mint with chocolate but this really does look so good. Always down for a la mode.
