   --------  ------------  --------------------------------
        3/4  cup           sugar
      1      envelope      unflavored gelatin
        1/2  cup           cold water
        1/2  cup           heavy cream
      3                    eggs -- separated
        1/3  cup           creme de menthe
        1/4  cup           creme de cacao
      1                    chocolate wafer pie crust (9 inch)
   
   Heat and stir 1/2 cup sugar, gelatin and water in top of double boiler over
 
  simmering water until gelatin dissolves.  Lightly beat egg yolks, blend in a
 
  little hot mixture, return to pan.  Cook and stir 3 - 5 minutes until thick 
  and no raw egg taste remains.
   
   Turn off heat, mix in liqueurs and place a circle of wax paper flat on 
  surface.  Cool until mixture mounds when dropped from spoon.
   
   Whip cream to soft peaks; fold into sauce.  Tint mint green (3 drops green 
  food coloring, 1 drop blue). 
   
   Beat egg whites until foamy, gradually beat in remaining sugar until soft 
  peaks form.  Fold into sauce.  Spoon into pie shell, freeze until firm.  
  Garnish with chocolate shavings or curls.
