FLUFFY MINT DESSERT

My niece made this for a gathering I attended and I loved it. It is a very light, creamy dessert. It does need to made at least a day ahead of time so allow for that in your preparation. (The mints called for are sold under the name of "Melt Away Mints" at Hickory Farms but you can get them other places as well. There is a photo of them in the photo section of this recipe.)
