Raw Peppermint Aero Slice
I did a Thermomix demo for a customer and she was telling me about a peppermint slice she made, it gave me instant cravings!! I rushed home and played around with a few ingredients and whipped up this slice and boy is it amazing!
The combination of the chocolate biscuit base, crunchy buckini layer, creamy peppermint and dark choc is soooooo good. I literally sat there cutting slice after slice off and eating it.
If you like mint Aero bars then you will love this Raw Peppermint Slice too.
