Very different from the "usual." I really liked the mint flavor. I made this 2 days ago and it's only getting better! I added some whipped cream to the edges since the crust weren't attractive, but it didn't add or take away any flavor. Made for ZWT5, RRR.

This site used to be awesome. It was at the top of its game when it was called Recipezaar, but that was many years ago. The site was purchased by Scripps and belly-flopped into mediocrity. A few of the faithful members remained, hoping to wait out the storm of corporate nonsense. But alas, it never got better and just continued on its terminal path to nothingness. So most of the loyal members have vanished and made homes at better recipe sites.
