Makeover Frozen Grasshopper Torte image

Who doesn't love the frosty, refreshing combo of mint and chocolate? Even better when it comes in the form of an awesome ice cream dessert! This Taste of Home Test Kitchen makeover is just as good as the original. The crunch of the chocolate crust and creamy mint filling make a great pair. Although softer-set than the original, this dessert won't stick around long enough to melt!

The torte was easy to make, but it didn't turn out as creamy as I had hoped.

This torte was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the torte turned out perfect. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of ice cream. I used vanilla ice cream, but I think chocolate or mint would be even better.
