<RecipeText>Pour half and half into a small pan, add marshmallows and cook, stirring until marshmallows are melted.  Set pan in cold water and stir until mixture is cooled.  Blend in Creme de Menthe, Creme de Cacao.  Chill mixture until it begins to thicken (about an hour or hour and a half).  In small bowl beat egg whites until stiff, then gradually beat in sugar and continue whipping until whites hold short, distinct peaks.  In a large bowl whip cream until stiff.  Thoroughly fold marshmallow mixture and whites into cream.  Pour into pan lined with chocholate crust.  See separate recipe. Cover with foil and freeze until firm - 8 hours or longer.  Remove pan sides; set torte on serving dish.  Garnish with chocolate curls.  Cut, serve.  Freezes well.
