    30m prep
    18 servings

    11 Ingredients

    * 375ml (1 1/2 cups) thickened cream

    * 125ml (1/2 cup) double cream

    * 1 tsp peppermint extract

    * Green food colouring, to tint

    * 3 x 155g packet Mr Kipling Chocolate Slices

    * 118g packet Nestlé Aero Mint chocolate, cut into shards

    * 35g Nestlé Peppermint Crisp bar, broken into shards

    * 10 spearmint leaves lollies

    * 5 Lindt Lindor Mint Collection Milk & White chocolate balls

    * Chocolate sauce, to serve

    * Mini red and green M&Ms, to serve

    3 Method / Steps

    Step 1

    Use electric beaters to beat the thickened cream, double cream and peppermint in a bowl. Add food colouring to tint green. Beat until evenly coloured and firm peaks form. Spoon the mixture into a large piping bag fitted with a 1.5cm fluted nozzle.

    Step 2

    Pipe 3 peaks onto the top of each Chocolate Slice. Place each iced Chocolate Slice on its side, just touching, around the edge of a large serving plate to form a wreath.

    Step 3

    Pipe small peaks of the cream mixture on top. Top with Aero, peppermint crisp, lollies and Lindor balls. Drizzle over chocolate sauce. Decorate with M&Ms.
