This one is perfect for the holidays. Plus it is easy! Though – instead of a grinder you may want to use a food processor. Did people really make this in the same appliance they ground meat? Oy.
1 lb. Vanilla Wafers
1 – 1/2 Pts. Cream (Whipped)
1-1/2 Cup Diced Marshmallows
1 cup chopped nuts
5 penny sticks of peppermint candy
Put wafers thru grinder. Pack 1/2 of wafers in pan 8×12. Mix together the cream, marshmallows, nuts and crushed peppermint and put it on top of the wafers. Sprinkle rest of wafers of top of this mix. Leave in ice box at least 24 hours.

Wow, this sounds so familiar. I wonder if my grandma made this one.
