This recipe is the reason for the quesiton about whipped cream. Probably will use REAl cream,,,it always works
18 oreo or Hydro crrokies
1/4 cup butter or margarine
crush cookies , melt butter and mix into cookie crumbs. Butter a 9" pie plate. Pat the cookie crumb mixture on the bottom and sides to make a crust. Refrigerate (or freeze) to set
Melt
25 marshnallows (or 2.5 cups of small marshmallows[pressed down firmly]}
2/3 cup milk
in a double boiler
cool to room temperature
add (fold in) 1 oz. creme de menthe
1 oz creme de cacao
whip 1/2 pint whipping cream to medium stiff
fold marshmallow mixture into cream carefully
Pour into chocolate crust and refrigerate to set...freezes well. Can be kept in the deep frees for about a week.
If the marshmallow mixture is too warm when you add the liqueur they will separate.
