My Taste of Home just came yesterday and I found this recipe. I don't think it is very nutritious, but quite possible it could be a very indulgent dessert that you wouldn't have to look at for the next few months anyways. Keep in mind, I haven't tryed it.
Grasshopper Pie
1 1/2 cups cold skim milk
1 (3.9 oz) package instant chocolate pudding mix (Get the sugar free equivalant)
2 3/4 cups fat free cool whip
1 (4.67 oz) package andies mints(chopped)
1 chocolate crumb crust
1/4 tsp mint extract
2 drops green food coloring
Whisk milk and pudding mix together for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes until soft set. Fold in 3/4 cup cool whip and 3/4 cup candies. Spoon into crust. In another bowl combine remaining cool whip with extract and food coloring. Spread over pudding layer, sprinkle with remaining candies. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or until set.
I put the ingredients into caloriecount.about.com that Razzle told us about, and if you split the pie into 8 servings each serving has about 230 calories, but that is with regular pudding and just chocolate, not the mints, because the website couldn't understand what I was trying to tell it so I got it as close as I could. Also you could make this better yet by ditching the crust and making parfaits. Then each serving would only have 89 calories (according to the web site, I can't believe that crumb crust is that bad for you!!, and that is still with the regular pudding, not the fat free sugar free kind). I thought it sounded delicious and am probably going to make it for the superbowl party, so that I have something that isn't quite as calorie laden to enjoy!!!
