This chocolate mint-mallow pie is basically a full version of our adorable MINI MINT MALLOW TARTS. Those hit the blog last winter and were a huge hit! Dainty little tarts of minty fresh chocolate! Drool worthy and quite the centerpiece for any holiday dessert table. All this deliciousness nestled inside our blog favorite PALEO PIE CRUST or our PIE CRUST MIX!
When we learned about Sweet Apricity marshmallows we were immediately smitten. Pairing them with decadent chocolate and boom, this chocolate mint-mallow pie was born. This filing is luscious and oh so very rich, so it won’t take too much to satisfy that chocolate craving. If you want it to be a bit milder, use the full amount of eight tablespoons of almond milk instead of six. Still chocolatey…still delish!
This pie is also a time saver for the big day! You can make it a couple days ahead and store in the refrigerator. On the big day all you have to do is dollop your favorite whipped cream up on top. If you feel fancy, add some chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder. Dessert is ready!
Using the delicious marshmallows from Sweet Apricity makes these tarts delightful! All of their products are paleo friendly and beyond delicious. Click over to their site to see all their goodies and be sure to use the discount: BACKPORCHPALEO at checkout for 15% off!

Directions
- Add marshmallows, almond milk, chocolate and peppermint oil (if using) to a medium saucepan. Melt slowly over medium low heat, stirring constantly to fully incorporate. Do not let it burn.

Question – do you think I could use the Sweet Apricity Peppermint marshmallows and then skip the mint oil?
Hi Laura – Yes, you absolutely could! The mint flavor might not be as strong, which is totally fine & would be still be so delicious! ENJOY! We’re enjoying this one on Thursday as well!!! ~Michelle
