Grasshopper cookies and grasshopper pie share a flavor profile, which is a combination of chocolate and mint. However, the two desserts are quite different. While grasshopper cookies are typically sandwich-style cookies with a mint filling, grasshopper pie is a creamy, mint-flavored pie with a chocolate crust. The two treats are both inspired by the classic Grasshopper cocktail, which contains crème de menthe, crème de cacao, and cream.
