Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180℃
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, caster sugar and cocoa powder. Mix well.
Step 3
In a saucepan, add the butter and heat over a medium heat until fully melted.
Step 4
Pour the butter into the dry ingredients and mix until its well combined. You might prefer to get in there with your hands. It should resemble a crumb mixture.
Step 5
Press the crumb mixture down into a lined 20 cm baking tin. Press it down firmly so it compacts.
Step 6
Place it in the oven for 20 minutes.
Step 7
Once done, take it out and set it aside to cool, sprinkle some caster sugar over the top.
Step 8
Once cooled, cut it into portions.
Step 9
To make the mint custard, mix the cornflour with the sugar then add a splash of the milk. Mix until its a loose paste like mixture.
Step 10
Place the rest of the mik into a saucepan and heat over a medium heat. Add the cornflour paste and carry on cooking over a medium heat. Stir continuously until it thickens.
Step 11
Once it has thickened to the right consistency, add a splash of peppermint extract and the green food colouring. Mix well.
Step 12
Serve the concrete cake and pour the mint custard over the top.
