Peppermint Surprise

This is one of my favorite holiday treats.

Peppermint Surprise

1 1/2 c. crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreo's)
1/4 c. butter or margarine, melted

Heat oven to 350. Mix cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press firmly against bottom and side of an ungreased pan or pie plate. Bake 10 minutes. Cool completely.

Filling:
1 pt whipping cream, whip and sweeten with about 1 cup of sugar and 1 tsp vanilla.(or just use cool whip, it is much easier).
Fold the following into cream or cool whip:
2 large peppermint candy canes, crushed
1 c. chopped nuts (optional)
1/4 pkg. miniature marshmallows

Pour mixture on to the chocolate crust. Chill for at least 12 hours.
