Frozen Chocolate Mint Pie image

This refreshing pie was featured at a small resort my family visited regularly as I was growing up. When I make it now, I relish compliments from tasters along with fond memories of sunny days at the beach and good home cooking.

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using semisweet chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate chips.
