Combine ingredients in a bowl, set power to 50% and stir every 60 seconds. This should only take about 2 minutes.After melting the mixture, either in double boiler or microwave, remove from heat and stir in the crème de menthe and vanilla.
Let mixture cool to room temperature.When completely cool, whip the cream until stiff peaks form. You should have about 3 cups total. Fold the whipped cream into the mint mixture, then fold in the mint chips.
Pour into the cooled pie crust and freeze until firm. The pie will be firm, but not icy.
Let it sit out for about 10 minutes before cutting it or the crust will be too hard to cut.
