Crème De Cocoa Pie

1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened

1/3 cup crème de cacao

1/3 cup crème de menthe (green)

1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped

1 tbsp confectioner’s sugar

Semi sweet chocolate

In a 10 inch glass, ovenproof pie pan, press down about a 1 inch thick layer of vanilla ice cream

Spoon over it 1/2 of the crème de cacao, then cover with thinner layer of ice cream and cover with 1/2 amount of crème de menthe

Finish ice cream and liqueurs in the next 2 layers

Whip cream, adding confectioner’s sugar, and spread a thin layer of this in swirls over the top of the pie

A few curls of chocolate would add a finishing touch, if you wish

Put in freezer to firm

Remove a few minutes before serving so that it will be easy to slice
