A delicious quick and easy no bake slice that always reminds me of my Grandma. Cream cheese sandwiched between 2 layers of sugar-coated lattice biscuits.
1 tbsp gelatine
50 ml hot water
180 g sugar
400 g cream cheese
100 g butter
1 tsp lemon zest (1 lemon)
30 g lemon juice (1 lemon)
1 tsp vanilla essence
2 packets Arnott’s Lattice biscuits
Line a 20x30cm slice tin with cling wrap.
Dissolve the gelatine in hot water in a heat proof glass.
Blitz the sugar at Speed 10 for 10 seconds.
Add the cream cheese and butter and mix at Speed 6 for 30 seconds.
Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla essence and dissolved gelatine and mix for a further 15 seconds on Speed 5.
Place one layer of lattice biscuits, sugar side down, in the slice tin.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the biscuits.
Top with lattice biscuits, sugar side up, placing them in line with the biscuits on the bottom layer (this will enable easy cutting).
Press gently down on the top layer of biscuits to help evenly distribute the filling.
Cover and refrigerate until set. Cut into squares, as per the biscuit layout.
Serves 12-14. Keep refrigerated for 3-4 days.
