The Kit-Kat Mess

In the Netherlands, people are much more health conscious. This means that most foods have reduced sugar, this includes everything from the Coca-Cola, to the cakes. Do not get me wrong, there is amazing desserts and fantastic foods but I enjoy them for different reasons to the way I enjoyed food in South Africa.

My South African sweet tooth meant that any and all desserts that I ate back home needed to contain high levels of sugar, now by no choice of my own, I enjoy the taste of the main ingredient.

I have searched far and wide to get "South African like" products abroad. You can imagine my surprise when I found an alternative for Caramel Treat, a South African staple.

I love this dessert because it reminds me of the peppermint tart we find at all South African gatherings, but with ingredients I can find in the Netherlands as well. I used the Biscoff biscuits in this reciepe because the biscuit is more moist than others, and you do not have to add additional butter to create the bottom layer.

As most of my reciepes , you will find that this one is easy to make and takes minimal time. Feel free to add and remove ingredients as you see fit.
