2 1/2 c. heavy (whipping) cream
1 c. semisweet chocolate chips
1 (8-ounce) brick cream cheese
3 c. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. pure mint extract

Instructions

Coat a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick spray.
Crust: Pulse cookies in a food processor to make fine crumbs. Add butter; process to blend. Press over bottom and up sides of pie plate. Place in refrigerator.
Meanwhile heat 1/2 cup heavy cream and the chocolate chips in a medium saucepan just until cream simmers. Let stand 1 minute. Stir until smooth. Cool to room temperature.
Beat cream cheese, sugar, and extract in a medium bowl with mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
Beat remaining heavy cream with mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form when beaters are lifted. Fold 1/2 into cream cheese mixture and 1/2 into chocolate.

Refrigerate at least 6 hours until firm, or up to 3 days.

Why this Chocolate-Mint Cream Cheese Pie works for PCOS

Desserts on a PCOS plan are not banned, but timing and pairing matter. Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying. This Chocolate-Mint Cream Cheese Pie works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
