Notes

Cool Whip: Lite Cool Whip works just as well as regular.
A handheld electric mixer is ideal for blending the ice cream and Cool Whip. But you can use a stand mixer, or even mix by hand if needed.
To get clean slices, run your knife under hot water for a few seconds, and wipe to dry between slices.
Storage: Store mint chocolate chip ice cream pie covered in the freezer for up to 1 month.
