Vickys Quick St Patricks Day Fudge, Grasshopper Pie Style, Gluten, Dairy, Egg & Soy-Free
- 50 grams bourbon cream biscuits or oreo cookies - roughly 5 cookies, my free-from recipe link is below
- 450 grams buttercream frosting - a store bought container works best for this recipe. The Betty Crocker brand of vanilla buttercream style frosting is free from gluten, dairy, egg & soy
- 340 grams white chocolate, see my free-from recipe link below
- 2 tsp mint extract
- 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
- Line a swiss roll or jelly roll tin with parchment paper
- Pat the cookie crumbs evenly into the bottom of the tin
- Put the buttercream in a large mixing bowl.
- You can make your own if you prefer but make it quite stiff.
- 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
- Mix in the mint extract and a little gel green to make the buttercream a pale pastel green colour
- Melt the broken chocolate in a microwaveable bowl on high in 30 second increments until done or over a bain marie on the stove
- Stir it into the buttercream and mix well, it'll start to stiffen very quickly
- Spoon the mixture over the cookie crumb base and smooth over the top with a wet spoon
- Top with some chocolate strands if you like.
- The Dr Oetker ones are free-from.
- Chill in the fridge for at least an hour
- Cut into squares and serve
