PEPPERMINT CRISP TART CONES
Serves 6 // Cooking time 1 hour 30 minutes

INGREDIENTS
6 sugar cones
100g dark chocolate, melted
2 cups cream
360g tin caramel
150g Peppermint Crisp, chopped
METHOD
1. Dip the edges of the cones in the melted chocolate. Leave to set.
2. Heat ⅓ cup cream (do not boil). Mix it with the remaining melted chocolate. Pour a little of the chocolate–cream mixture into the bottom of each cone, then place in the freezer for a few minutes to set.
3. Whip remaining cream until stiff peaks form. Divide between 2 bowls.
4. Place caramel in a separate bowl and whisk lightly to loosen. Set aside ¼ caramel for layering.
5. Fold ¾ caramel and ½ chopped Peppermint Crisp into 1 bowl of cream. Spoon mixture into a piping bag.
6. Transfer the other bowl of cream into another piping bag.
7. Fill the cones halfway with the Peppermint Crisp mixture, add a dollop of caramel, then fill all the way. Put in the freezer and leave to set for at least 1 hour, but less than 24 hours (or they will be soggy).
8. Finish by topping each cone with remaining whipped cream and Peppermint Crisp.
