Makes: 16 slices
Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
- 250g Marie biscuits, crushed
- 3/4 tin sweetened condensed milk
- 100g butter, chopped
- 2 tablespoons cocoa
- 1 small drop peppermint essence
- 200g peppermint chocolate, roughly chopped
- 150g white chocolate

Method
Using a food processor, crush the biscuits and then pour into a medium-sized bowl. Sift the cocoa into the crushed biscuits. In a saucepan over a low heat, melt the butter, peppermint chocolate and condensed milk. Once melted, pour this onto the crushed biscuits and mix well. Add a very small of the peppermint essence and stir. Spread the mixture into a slice pan lined with baking paper. Melt the white chocolate in the microwave, pour melted chocolate over the slice and quickly added the green food colouring and swirling with a skewer. Leave in the fridge to set, about 15 minutes, and then cut into squares.
