Taste like peppermint crisp tart (for South Africans out there!)

This Mint chocolate cream tart taste like South African treat, peppermint crisp tart When I lived in London my South African friends have introduced me to peppermint crisp tart that I fell in love from the first taste. Now when I moved to Bedford I don’t have that many opportunities to have this yumminess for dessert. Thats when I thought I could make it myself, although I knew that some ingredients can only be found in South African shops (which we have none here). This is what led me to make a similar tart that uses ingredients which can be easily found in my local Tesco (or any other supermarket).

The results? I was amazed myself, it tasted exactly the same (as far as I remember)! The only imperfection was that it was very loose as the cream did not hold it’s shape when cut. Originally South African peppermint is made in the dish and layered with biscuits, but I wanted to make it cheesecake style so it could hold the shape on it’s own (obviously I failed on that). Try it for yourself, just be warned it taste really rich so it is better consumed in small portions ;-).This Mint chocolate cream tart taste like South African treat, peppermint crisp tart MINT CHOCOLATE CREAM TART
