Ingredients:
- 200g Arnott’s Mint Slice biscuits
- 2L vanilla ice cream, softened
- 2 tsp peppermint essence
- 1/2 tsp green food colouring
- 35g Nestlé Peppermint Crisp bar, roughly chopped
- Mixed berries, to serve
Method:
Break the Mint Slice biscuits into small pieces. You can do this by placing them in a plastic bag and gently crushing them with a rolling pin.
In a large bowl, mix the softened vanilla ice cream with the peppermint essence and green food colouring. The mixture should be a uniform mint colour.
Fold the crushed Mint Slice biscuits and chopped Peppermint Crisp bar into the ice cream mixture.
Line a dome-shaped bowl with cling film, leaving a little overhang. Pour the ice cream mixture into the bowl and smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover with the remaining plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
To serve, invert the bomb onto a serving platter and remove the plastic wrap. Leave for a few minutes to soften slightly, then slice and serve with fresh mixed berries on the side.
