I thought about calling these mini grasshopper fools, but that sounded like a bit much.  

Have you ever tried a fool?  It’s an old-fashioned dessert consisting of pureed or mashed fruit, usually berries, folded into sweetened whipped cream.  I made a strawberry moscato fool last spring, and it was delicious. These parfaits are similar to fools, but with mint instead of fruit.  They’re the perfect way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day (or any day).

(In case I lost you at “grasshopper”, I use the term to describe minty desserts, usually also involving chocolate. The name was first used for a green cocktail made with creme de menthe.)
