Grasshopper Pie (No Alcohol)

Submitted by mliss29

"I don't remember how I got the idea that I wanted to try a Grasshopper Pie. I don't drink, so it took a bit of searching the web to find a recipe without alcohol. One time I forgot to buy the Andes mints, so I used semi-sweet chocolate chips. Not as good. Might be okay if they were the itty-bitty kind. For the crust, mix 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs with 4 Tablespoons melted butter and press into a 9-inch pie plate."
