Marshmallow Grasshopper Pie

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 45 min. + chilling YIELD: 8 servings.
After a hearty meal, this refreshing pie hits the spot. I always make this festive treat whenever my son comes to visit; he loves to add sweet cherries on top. Cherries or not, the chocolate and mint are definitely meant for each other. —Sally Vandermus, Rochester, Minnesota
