INGREDIENTS

250 ml whipped cream
1 tin caramel Treat (360g)
Ten packet Tennis Biscuits

METHOD

To make this delicious dessert, start by crushing or grating the Peppermint Crisp chocolate and setting it aside.
Next, whisk the cream until soft peaks form, being careful not to over-whisk it.
In a separate bowl, mix the caramel treat with a fork until it’s smooth.
Then, fold the caramel and half of the crushed chocolate into the cream.
To assemble the dessert, layer Tennis biscuits in a square or rectangular dish or crush them and mix them with melted butter.
Cover the biscuits with the cream mixture, making sure that they’re all covered. Then, add a second layer of biscuits and cover again with the cream mixture.
Finally, sprinkle the remaining chocolate over the top.
It’s best to leave the dessert overnight, but if you can’t wait, you can allow it to set in the fridge for three hours.
When ready to serve, add a dollop of cream or ice cream for added decadence.
