Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a food processor, crush the 25 cookies until they resemble fine crumbs. Combine with melted butter and press into a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes and let cool completely.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add melted white chocolate and peppermint extract, mixing until well combined. Fold in the thawed whipped topping.
  3. Pour the creamy filling into the cooled crust, spreading evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  4. While the pie sets, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and peppermint extract until stiff peaks form. Spread over the chilled pie.
  5. Garnish with crushed peppermint candies and optional white chocolate shavings before serving.
