Mint Ice Box Torte

 I found this recipe in an old church cookbook, and I remember my mom making something similar.  It was a bright and minty taste dessert and I have not had it for years.  It is made with those little pastel party mints. It has to set for 36 hours, and the mints should melt.  I hope to try this soon, and will update this then.
