Grasshopper cake is made with crème de menthe, which is just a mint flavored liquor. This cheesecake version is a little different than the traditional cake version, but anything that includes cheesecake is a winner in my book. The cake is really light and creamy with a subtle minty flavor. There's not even a crust that you have to make beforehand, so that makes this quick and even healthier in my opinion. Enjoy and Happy St. Patrick's Day!
