Chelsea's one is nice but I strongly recommend that you have a mixer or electric beaters to do this as the filling is beaten for 8 minutes in a cake mixer to get the consistency correct. It also needs a little more than an hour to set. Once done though it does hold together well and was a hit at work when I took it for nights. Was very very rich. Pic shows what happens when you don't leave it long enough to set lol (in fridge for an hour as recipe stated but definitely needed more). http://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/357189535.jpg

I'll second that, I've made it several times. The fresh mint is superb in it!
