                         -----CRUST-----
    1 1/2  cups          Chocolate cookie crumbs

      1/4  cup           Oleo -- melted
                         -----FILLING-----
    1 1/2  teaspoons     Plain gelatin
      1/3  cup           Cream
    4                    Egg yolks
      1/4  cup           Sugar
      1/4  cup           Creme de menthe
      1/4  cup           Creme de cacoa
      1/2  cup           Whipping cream
 
 Mix the crumbs, 1/4 c sugar and melted oleo. Line pie plate and bake at 450' for
5 mins. Cool. Soften gelatin in cream over hot water. Cool. Beat sugar into
yolks. Add liquors, Add gelatin and mix well. Refrigerate for 15 mins until
slightly thickened. Whip cream and fold into thickened gelatin mixture. Pour into
cooled cookie crust and chill until firm. Crushed mint flavored chocolate may be
sprinkled on top. (I know about the salmonella problem in uncooked eggs,
but....it’s sooo good).I've used just Creme de menthe because I had no Creme
d'cacoa,on hand. From the Sharp Hospital, San diego,CA Christmas Recipe booklet,
1st edition. Circa 1960
