1 pkt white mints, round ones

Method: Crush bisuits [sic] and mints, and mix all together. Roll out then cut into squares.

Note: I have made these and they are strong and delicious. I used Arnott's Chocolate Ripple biscuits. They were extremely sticky to roll and cut: a good sprinkling of icing sugar helped with this, plus immediate refrigeration.
