Peppermint Crisp Cake - easy & delicious. And why not make it for one of your festive meals as a dessert!

RECIPE
Ingredients:
2 tubs Orley Whip
1 can caramel treat
2x 100g Peppermint crisp slab, grated
2x packets Tennis biscuits
Method:
1. Beat your Orley Whip until stiff
2. Beat the tin of caramel seperately, I do this to
prevent lumps & if you beat Orley Whip & cream
too long it becomes runny
3. Mix Orley Whip & caramel with a knife or whisk,
important not to mix too much to prevent a runny
mixture
4. Mix 1/2 cup of grated peppermint crisp chocolate
into caramel-mixture
5. Take a round cake tin (23cm in diameter) pack
tennis biscuits on the bottom, pour 1/4 of caramel-
mixture onto tennis biscuits. Sprinkle some of
Peppermint crisp chocolate onto caramel mixture
6. Pack a layer of tennis biscuits, repeat layers & end
with caramel mixture sprinkled with last
peppermint crisp chocolate
7. Cover cake with gladwrap & leave in fridge for at
least 5-6 hours
8. Take it out of cake tin, but don’t remove bottom,
put it with bottom of cake tin onto serving dish
9. Enjoy as a dessert or with coffee
