Peppermint Crisp Tart Ice Cream Sandwiches

These peppermint crisp ice cream sandwiches are one of my favourite flavours of South African summer. Inspired by a ‘local ‘n lekker’ dessert, peppermint crisp tart, it is made with only 4 ingredients (like the pudding which inspired it) but is a much better suitor for our steamy climate. It’s so easy you can rope (read: trick) the kids into making them (while you read a book or pour a glass of wine) and the little sarmies are great for serving after a lazy weekend braai. I’ve done many a twist on peppermint crisp tart – like this Caramel Peppermint Crisp Cake or this Peppermint Crisp Mousse Cake. There’s a pattern here… putting two desserts into one. Well, because if you have a sweet tooth and have ever had to choose between two desserts, you’ll know that it’s a torturous nightmare. Two desserts in one. Problem solved! Because too much of a sweet thing is never enough!
