The festive season is here. This means family get-togethers, braais, and other social events. While traditions are great, there are only so many times you can eat peppermint tart, right?

I suggested to my family that we have a very non-traditional meal this year and they were having none of it. So I am going to try to make small changes to some of the dishes.

This recipe from KOO sounds absolutely delicious. We are big peanut butter and ice-cream fans so adding the two together made perfect sense! Everyone loves a little biscuit too, so really there is guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser.
