How to Make Bob's Peppermint Pie
- Bloom the gelatin: In a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over cold water. Let stand for 5 minutes to soften.
- Melt the candy: In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream and the crushed peppermint candies. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until the candy is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Incorporate gelatin: Remove from heat and stir in the softened gelatin until completely dissolved.
- Cool slightly: Let the mixture cool slightly, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken slightly (about 5-10 minutes).
- Whip the cream: In a separate bowl, beat the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
- Fold in whipped cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled peppermint mixture until well combined.
- Pour into crust: Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Chill: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely.
