Lemon Slice
« on: August 21, 2011, 09:43:18 am »
Ingredients
Base
150g condensed milk
100g butter
200g sweet biscuits (granita, milk arrowroot)
1 cup desiccated coconut
rind of one lemon

Icing
2 cups icing sugar
40g melted butter
juice of one lemon

Method
Grind biscuits on speed 6 for 10 seconds (very fine). Put biscuit crumbs in separate bowl. Add coconut and rind to this bowl.
In the thermomix melt butter and condensed milk together. Speed 2 90 degrees for approximately 3 minutes.
Add butter mix to biscuit mix and combine well. Press into slice tin and place in fridge to set for approximately 1-1.5 hrs.

Put all icing ingredients into bowl and combine well. You can melt the butter in the bowl before adding the other ingredients. Pour over base and place in fridge to set for a further half an hour.
Done! Slice into small squares to serve.

Denzelmum - Yum.  The frosting still melted everywhere after staying in the fridge overnight.  Decided to cut and freeze it.
This freezes really well.  Served this for grown ups on DS 2nd birthday party, a hit!

maddy - It will be runny because of the melted butter. Leave out the butter and just use lemon juice and icing sugar.

astarra - Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm This is great! I used this recipe for the instructions and the quantities from my old recipe (only difference is: 1/2C coconut instead of 1 C, 195gm condensed milk, and 120g butter. Oh and 250gm biscuits.) Miss 5 has just asked me to freeze some for her lunch boxes!! So thanx charabelle for the recipe and thanx denzelmum for letting us know it can be frozen!

Yes JD definitely an oldie, was surprised there wasn't one on here!

Regarding the icing sugar, I just use whatever I have, if there is icing sugar in the pantry I will use it, otherwise just mill up some raw sugar.
