Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Bake pie crust as directed on package for One-Crust Baked Pie Shell. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.

MINT CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Prepare and bake the crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grind the chocolate wafers in a food processor until you have medium-fine crumbs. Add the crumbs to a bowl and stir in the butter, sugar, and salt, mixing until the crumbs are like wet sand and the mixture clumps together when pressed in your fist. Press the crumbs into a 9-inch pie dish and tamp down with the bottom of a measuring cup. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the crust looks and feels dry to the touch, and your kitchen smells like Oreos. Cool on a rack while you make the filling.
• Make the filling: Whisk the egg yolks, sugar, cocoa, and cornstarch together in a medium saucepan to make a smooth paste. (Add a splash of milk if it's too dry to mix; the idea is just to get these ingredients thoroughly mixed together before adding the rest of the milk and cream.) Whisk in the milk and cream. Heat the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the pudding thickens enough to leave visible tracks from the whisk. This could take anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes depending on your stovetop. Don't be tempted to turn up the heat because the pudding can easily start to curdle. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, extract, and salt. Place a strainer over a bowl, and use a spatula to gently press the pudding through to catch any bits of egg that might have curdled.
• Fill and chill the pie: Spread the pudding into the crust. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Chill the pie for at least 6 hours to set or overnight. When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and chopped peppermint bark.

MINT COOKIES AND CREAM COOKIE PIE

Steps:

• PREP! Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat the baking sheet and chosen baking pan with baking spray.
• MIX THE DRY! In a medium bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, milk powder, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
• MIX THE WET AND COMBINE! In a large bowl, and using a wooden spoon or sturdy rubber spatula, mix the butter and both sugars, flexing your muscles for about 2 minutes, until they are fully combined. Add the egg, mint, and vanilla and stir until combined and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. (If your dough is exceptionally wet-if it looks really shiny or oily-your butter was likely too hot. Throw it in the fridge for a few minutes to firm up before continuing on.)
• CHOCOLATE TIME! Fold in the white chocolate chips, chocolate chips, and crushed cookies. (Save a few tablespoons of each for the next step, though.)
• SPREAD, SPRINKLE, AND BAKE! Place the prepared baking pan on top of the baking sheet. Smoosh your dough into the bottom of the pan. Using your hands, pat the dough down evenly to the edges. Sprinkle some extra cookies and chocolate chips around the inside edge of your ring as decoration. Bake the cookie at 350°F for 18 to 20 minutes. Double-check that you set the timer; because this cookie is already dark brown it's tricky to tell by sight when it's ready to take out of the oven. The timer is your best friend! Using oven mitts, remove the baking sheet and pan from the oven and let the cookie cool completely on the baking sheet (about 25 minutes). Cut the cookie into 8 slices, like a pizza. Store the slices on a plate, wrapped well in plastic, for up to 1 week.
