Instructions
Make the red cookie crust (20 minutes) ❤️🥣
Crush the red cookies into fine crumbs, mix with melted butter, and press firmly into a pie dish. Chill to set.
Prepare the mousse base (5 minutes) 💚✨
Beat cream cheese until smooth and fluffy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Fold in Cool Whip, then fold in whipped heavy cream to create a thick mousse.
Add festive sprinkles (3 minutes) 🎄💛
Stir in red heart sprinkles and green nonpareils. Spread the mousse evenly into the chilled crust.
Chill the pie (4–6 hours) ❄️
Refrigerate until the mousse is firm enough to slice cleanly. Overnight is ideal.
Make the Grinch piped topping (3 minutes) 💚🎉
Tint whipped topping with neon and regular green gel coloring until it becomes bright Grinch-green. Pipe tall swirls on top.
Decorate (1 minute) ❤️✨
Add extra small and medium red heart sprinkles for that perfect Whoville touch.
