Ingredients

• 1 tin caramel condensed milk
• 2 cups white chocolate, melted
• 1 packet Tennis biscuits, crushed
• 1 large Peppermint Crisp bar, crushed
• 1/2 teaspoon mint essence (optional)

Instructions

Line a square baking tin with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the caramel condensed milk and melted white chocolate. Stir until smooth and fully incorporated.

Add the crushed Tennis biscuits and mix well. The mixture will become thick and textured.

Fold in the crushed Peppermint Crisp chocolate. If you prefer a stronger mint flavor, stir in the optional mint essence.

Mix until everything is evenly distributed.

Press the mixture firmly into the prepared tin, smoothing the surface with the back of a spoon or spatula.

Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours, or until completely firm.

Once set, lift out using the parchment paper, slice into squares or bars, and serve chilled.

Texture and Flavor

This fridge fudge is rich and creamy with layers of texture. The white chocolate and caramel create a smooth base, the biscuits add gentle crunch, and the Peppermint Crisp delivers bursts of minty chocolate throughout.

The result is sweet but balanced. The mint cuts through the caramel richness, preventing the dessert from feeling too heavy.

It slices cleanly once chilled and holds its shape well, making it perfect for serving on dessert platters.

Tips for Perfect Results

Crush the biscuits into small pieces but leave some texture for crunch.

Press the mixture firmly into the tin to ensure neat slices.

If the mixture feels too soft before chilling, refrigerate briefly before pressing into the tin.

Use a sharp knife for slicing, wiping the blade between cuts for clean edges.

Keep refrigerated until ready to serve for best texture.
