​Cheapskater Margaret said
"I love to try new recipes, and just tried this on the weekend. We had lots of kids here for dinner on Saturday, and I wanted something to give them for dessert that was easy, cheap and yummy. I think these ice cream sandwiches worked really well, and are a perfect standby for school holiday time. The person I got the recipe from uses UHT cream, so that everything can be on hand in the cupboard."

1 packet malt o milk biscuits ( I used the cheap Paradise brand, they worked fine)
1 tin sweetened condensed milk
400mls cream (I used home brand thickened cream)
1 pkt Maltesers - crushed a little with a rolling pin (or a violet crumble, or a crunchie, or some m and ms, or whatever you like really!)

Method:
All you do is line a lamington or slice tin with baking paper (leaving enough overhang so you can lift the ice cream out later), line up the biscuits on the base. Whisk together the cream and condensed milk until slightly thickened (NOT whipped), about three minutes in a standing mixer. Then stir through the Maltesers. Pour this mixture over the biscuits, then place the rest of the biscuits on the top in the same pattern as the ones on the bottom (so that when you cut the ice-cream slice it will match up). Cover with glad wrap and freeze for about four or five hours. Then unmold, slice up, and you can place these back in the freezer, or eat straight away!
