This is such an easy way to make fudge of any flavour. Use different extracts and colours to make strawberry, chocolate, vanilla, rum, orange - any flavour you like. You don't even need the biscuit base. I used it because this was originally my Grasshopper Pie Fudge recipe

1

Put the cookies in a ziplock bag, press the air out, seal it and then beat it with a rolling pin to break them into crumbs. You can use a food processor if you prefer

2

Line a swiss roll or jelly roll tin with parchment paper
3

Pat the cookie crumbs evenly into the bottom of the tin
4

Put the buttercream in a large mixing bowl. I would use 350g/12oz butter (gold foil wrapped Stork block margarine is dairy & soy-free) to 675g/1.5lbs powdered sugar if I was making my own for this
5

Mix in the mint extract and a little gel green to make the buttercream a pale pastel green colour
6

Melt the broken chocolate in a microwaveable bowl on high in 30 second increments until done or over a bain marie on the stove

7

Stir it into the buttercream and mix well, it'll start to stiffen very quickly
8

Spoon the mixture over the cookie crumb base and smooth over the top with a wet spoon
9

Top with some chocolate strands if you like. The Dr Oetker ones are free-from. Chill in the fridge for at least an hour
10

Cut into squares and serve
