Ingredients

1/2 pkt Plain Biscuits
1 pkt Lemon Jelly
1 cup Water
1 can Condensed Milk Caramel
1/2 cup Cream
1 slab Peppermint Choccolate – Ideally Peppermint Crisp

Instructions

  1. Place 1/2 packet plain biscuits in a single layer at the bottom of a 24 cm square dish.
  2. In a bowl, dissolve 1 packet lemon jelly in 1 cup hot water, stirring until completely dissolved. Chill until it just starts to set.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whip 1/2 cup cream until soft peaks form.
  4. Add 1 can caramel condensed milk and the semi-set jelly to the whipped cream. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  5. Grate half of a slab of peppermint chocolate into the mixture and stir gently.
  6. Pour the mixture over the biscuit layer in the dish, smoothing the top.
  7. Grate the remaining peppermint chocolate over the top as decoration.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 5 hours, or until fully set.
  9. Slice and serve chilled.

Hints & Tips

  • Use fresh cream – Freshly whipped cream gives the tart a lighter, fluffier texture.
  • Chill well – Allow the tart to set completely for the best sliceable texture.
  • Try a chocolate biscuit base – For extra richness, use chocolate-coated biscuits instead of plain ones.
  • Crush the biscuits slightly – If you like a softer base, lightly crush the biscuits before layering.
  • Make ahead – This tart tastes even better the next day after the flavours have fully developed.
