If you’re looking for a holiday dessert that’s as easy to make as it is festive, this Candy Cane No Bake Pie is the one to try. With its creamy peppermint filling, crunchy Oreo crust, and fluffy Cool Whip topping, it’s the perfect mix of rich and refreshing. The candy cane crunch adds just the right holiday flair, making it a dessert that looks beautiful on the table and tastes like Christmas in every bite.
The Oreo crust gives this pie a chocolatey base that pairs perfectly with the peppermint cream filling. The filling itself is cool and creamy thanks to a blend of whipped cream, cream cheese, and crushed candy canes for texture and flavor. A hint of vanilla rounds it out, while a touch of red food coloring gives it a festive pink hue that makes it especially eye-catching for holiday gatherings.
Because it’s a no-bake recipe, this pie is practically foolproof. All you need is a mixer and a little time to chill the pie until firm. It’s a stress-free option for busy holiday hosts who want something impressive without spending hours in the kitchen. Best of all, it can be made ahead of time, so it’s ready whenever you are.
