Grease a 20cm/1 liter baking dish.
Slice croissants thickly and arrange the slices in the dish, scatter with the After Eight mints.
In a large jug, beat the milk, cream and vanilla.
Slowly pour the mixture over the croissants and sprinkle with sugar.
Place the dish in a deep roasting pan and pour enough boiling water to come half way up the sides.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until the custard is softly set and the top puffy and golden.
Dust with the icing sugar and serve warm.
