Strain the mixture using a sieve in a bowl. Add the green colour and peppermint essence and mix gently. Add 1 cup of beaten whipped cream and fold gently. Pour the chocolate-whipped cream mixture over the set biscuit base. Spread it evenly useing a palate knife. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours or till the pie sets.

Garnish with 6 to 8 big swirls of beaten whipped cream at equal distance along the circumference of the cake and place the chocolate curls in the centre of the cake as shown in the image. Cut into 6 equal wedges and serve chilled. Garnished with chocolate curls.
