Mint Ice Cream Oreo Tart

Yay! It’s my favorite part of St. Patrick’s Day. Dessert! I don’t even know why mint and chocolate are a St. Patrick’s Day thing but why look a gift horse in the mouth right? I’ll take any excuse to eat mint chocolate. In fact the only thing that is better than mint chocolate is mint chocolate and Oreo! I made a Mint Oreo Layered Dessert last year and it was delicious but this year I got a little more sophisticated with this beautiful Mint Ice Cream Oreo Tart.

The Mint Ice Cream Oreo tart crust is made from a mixture of Oreo crumbs and butter. I bake my Oreo tart crust because I like a little crunch in my crust but you can go completely no bake with this and instead of baking you put the crust in the freezer and let it firm up instead of baking. The tart crust is filled with a layer of mint chocolate chip ice cream that fills the crust up about halfway. Then it’s topped with a thick layer of creamy ganache. The cool ice cream begins to harden up the ganache right away and the whole thing goes into the freezer to let it set before serving.

The soft mint chocolate chip ice cream paired with the slightly stiff, rich ganache and the crisp crunch of the Oreo crust is amazing. It’s the perfect ratio of mint to chocolate and I may have eaten two slices right away. Don’t judge me.
