• 3 Safest Choice™ pasteurized egg(s)
• 1 c white chocolate chips, melted and cooled

2. Remove 1/2 cup cream cheese mixture; set aside. Add white chocolate to remaining mixture; beat on medium to combine. By hand, fold in whipped cream. Gently stir in peppermint. Pour into pie crust. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, stir chocolate chips into reserved 1/2 cup cream cheese mixture. Remove pie from refrigerator. Slowly pour chocolate mixture over pie. Spread to cover pie, or use knife to swirl chocolate. Freeze, covered, until firm.
