This is my own adapted and modified version of the well-known and loved SA Peppermint Crisp Tart so I present you with a Peppermint Aero Caramel Frozen Dessert.
I used Peppermint Aero iso Peppermint Crisp as we do not get Peppermint Crisp that easily at the store here in Canada, as it’s an SA product.

Description
Craving a refreshing treat? Indulge in the minty, caramel goodness of Peppermint Aero Caramel Frozen Dessert. This delightful blend of cool peppermint, creamy caramel, and bubbly Aero chocolate will make your taste buds sing for more.
Ingredients
- 1 tin (380 ml) of caramel condensed milk.
- 300 ml Chilled fresh cream (make sure it’s well chilled)
- 1 packet (200 gram) Tennis Biscuits (Substitute: Biscoff Cookies)
- 2 x bars (41g each) Aero Peppermint Bubble Bars, or if you can find Peppermint Crisp chocolate in your area, go for it.
Instructions
- Line a small loaf pan with aluminum foil and make sure you have a large enough piece on the one end as an overhang to eventually cover the dessert entirely.
- Form and shape the foil on the outside of the pan, and then line the inside of the pan as it will fit way easier.
- Place a row of Tennis biscuits on the bottom of the pan, face down (with the pretty pattern side to the bottom).
- Whip the very well-chilled cream until stiff peaks form.
- Use a fork or spoon and ‘whip’ the caramel in the tin, to soften it slightly, and then gently fold in/mix the caramel condensed milk into the cream.
- Chop the Peppermint Aero/Peppermint Crisp and mix into the cream-caramel mixture.
- You can decide if you want a make 3 or 4 four layers of Tennis biscuits.
- Depending on your decision: For a 4 layer, you will spoon a 1/3rd of the cream mixture over the Tennis biscuit bottom and continue and end with your 4th layer of Tennis biscuits.
- Alternatively, use ½ of the mixture on the Tennis biscuit bottom, then a layer of biscuits, the next ½ of the mixture, and end with the 3rd layer of Tennis biscuits.
- Cover the loaf pan with glad wrap/clingwrap and the overhanging foil and place it in your freezer if possible, overnight is best.
- Remove from the pan, turn it upside down, and slice.
To Decorate: (Optional):
- You can melt some plain chocolate in the microwave, at 1-minute increments.
- Place the Peppermint Aero Caramel Frozen Dessert on a wire rack with some parchment paper to catch the drippings and once the chocolate is melted, distribute all of it over the top of the frozen dessert and decorate with some white chocolate or more chopped Peppermint Aero/Peppermint Crisp.
- Slice and enjoy.

These look delicious!
Thanks Joanne. I love to experiment and created something different. Hope you will give it a try and if so enjoy it.
This sounds so delicious! I do not make too many desserts. When I do I eat it all 🙂
I totally agree with you that when you make it you eat it all, and I am now on a very strict healthy way of eating so no more dessert for me.
I love the peppermint flavor and caramels are my favorite candy I believe I will try this soon as it sounds scrumptious. Thanks for sharing come see us at http://shopannies.blogspot.com
Thanks Angie, Hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Any peppermint flavoured and caramel treat = awesome in my books.

Totally agree, anything with caramel = awesome. Do not miss to have a spoon full before adding the rest to the dessert.
I’ve tried making caramel ice cream similar to this (which was delicious), but never with mint Aero (which I love)! Sounds so interesting. Thanks for sharing this post at the Will Blog for Comments #24 linkup!
Morning Jennifer. Thanks, I usually adapt and play around with all recipes I make and never only use one recipe. I get an idea I want to make, then search for something similar and always end up combining a number of recipes and adapt it to what I have on hand.
The combination of flavors promises to tantalize the taste buds and provide a delightful sensory experience.
Hi Mary Thanks for your kind comment and popping in to my corner of the blogging world. Hope you will give this a try and let me know if you like it.
