Peppermint Cloud Rice Pie

3 cups cooked rice
3 1/2 cups milk, divided use
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 (9-inch) chocolate cookie crumb crust
1 (1 1/4-ounce) envelope whipped topping mix
1/3 cup crushed peppermint candy

2. Beat eggs with 1/2 cup milk. Stir into rice mixture. Cook 2 minutes. Add butter and vanilla. Cool. Turn into crumb crust. Chill.
3. Combine topping mix and remaining 1/2 cup milk; whip until it stands in stiff peaks. Fold in peppermint candy. Swirl on top of pie before serving. Garnish with bits of peppermint candy, if desired.
