St. Patrick’s day is almost here! And you may be starting to get sick of everything “green” so I wanted to throw out another option for all those Thin Mints or Grasshopper cookies… Raspberry Thin Mint Trifles. Oh my, I ate both of the ones in the photos right after I finished taking pictures. They were incredible. Everyone has to try these! And it helps that they’re so easy to make…
The Story:
It sat on the dessert table next to all the familiar cakes, cookies and gooey brownies. But I didn’t understand what it was. It looked like a rainbow of whipped cream and fruit, but I didn’t know how people were supposed to eat it. I watched as the adults started to serve the food. It was like a dessert casserole, which didn’t appeal to me in the least. Because by the time it was slopped onto plates, it just looked like mush. But wow, did mush taste good.
I guess I prefer the mini versions…

My little photo set up
I like this recipe idea. I will def try it. I also like the mini trifles. great idea.
What a delightful way to re-make thin mints. It’s nice to see a different flavor combo being used with the Thin Mints, a little bit outside of everything else floating around that seems the same.
Exactly! I was trying to do something a little different, and these really were delicious!
This is a great way to use thin mints and I was getting a little sick of all the green!
I love, love, love your little glass trifle cups. I have some footed glass trifle cups too but they are larger than yours. I think yours are cuter. I love everything “little!”
Made them! SO yummy! I brought them to a party…people swooned. I substituted strawberries because raspberries cost all of my money. But still, so tasty!
