Today swagbuck daily question was What kind of mint desert does people like? Then I see on the list grasshopper pie at first I thought it was a pie with real Grasshopper, chocolate and mint flavors I know in some areas people do eat chocolate covered ants, so I like to know were i can find a real recipe for vrasshopper pue. As I now know no grass hoopers ate use, that would be a job to catch grasshopper s

First of all, NO real grasshoppers are harmed when making this pie. I can no more explain why it's called "Grasshopper Pie" than I can explain why a dish of sausages baked in batter is called "Toad in the Hole". It involves a chocolate liqueur and Creme de Menthe , cream and more chocolate, so it's quite a boozy pie. Maybe, after eating it, you get to jump around and bounce off the ceiling, I don't know!
Grasshopper Pie is a classic recipe that made a comeback! The chocolate and mint are outstanding and it's such an easy dessert recipe!

Actually, I believe that it's called Grasshopper Pie after the cocktail or drink called a Grasshopper which involves 1 part Creme de Cacao, 1 part Creme de Menthe and 1 part cream - a bit like a mint chocolate Bailey's, if you know what I mean.

Huh... I am always eager to try new things, but a pie with real grasshoppers? Maybe one grasshopper, but definitely not a pie .
