Description

Ingredients

• 80g of butter
• 250g of condensed milk (about ¾ cup)
• 250g of plain sweet biscuits (like Marie biscuits)
• 1 cup of desiccated coconut
• Juice from 1 lemon
• Grated lemon zest from one lemon
• Lemon Frosting:
• 240g icing sugar
• 60g butter, softened to room temperature
• 3 tbs lemon juice
• 2 tbs desiccated coconut

Directions

• Grease and line a 22cm X 32cm rectangular slice tin with baking paper.
• Crush biscuits and place into a bowl.
• Add coconut and grated lemon rind.
• Mix to combine.
• Melt butter in the microwave (or on the stovetop) on medium heat until completely melted.
• Add melted butter, condensed milk and lemon juice to the biscuit mixture.
• Mix thoroughly until well combined.
• Press into the prepared tin.
• Place into the fridge.
• In a bowl, whisk the icing sugar, room temperature butter and lemon juice in a bowl until creamy and frosting-like - if the frosting is too thick to spread, add a little more lemon juice.

• Cut into slices.
• Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
