lemon coconut slice

Quick and easy Lemon Slice made with sweetened condensed milk.

Lemon Slice

(roughly 3 cups) Digestive biscuits*,

(1 cup) desiccated coconut

lemon

(1/4 cup) butter

240 ml (1 cup) sweetened condensed milk

lemon juice (roughly 1 lemon)

(1 cup) icing sugar

lemon juice

milk

Lemon

Line an 8-inch square pan with baking or parchment paper. Place broken biscuits into a food processor and mix until fine crumbs form. Pour biscuit crumbs into a large mixing bowl.

Add coconut and lemon zest and stir to combine. Heat butter in microwave until melted and smooth. 

Add melted butter, sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice to biscuit mixture and quickly stir. When biscuit crumbs are completely coated, pour into your baking tin. Press down firmly using the back of a spoon to form one even layer.

Place slice in the fridge for at least 1 hour to set before making the lemon icing.

To make the icing, simply combine sugar, lemon juice and milk. Stir until smooth. 

Pour icing over cookie base and put back in the fridge for at least another hour. To serve, sprinkle with fresh lemon zest and cut into squares. Store slice in the fridge. 

Lovely recipe, put it in the fridge and found it was nicer after a few days, it firmed up and the slice wasn't so sweet, gave it chance for the flavours to develop.

Thia is amazing. Just the right mix of sweet and lemon. I get so many comments on it each time I nmake it.

I've been making this recipe for years - VERY moreish ...which is the downside!. However, I have found that for the icing, just using icing sugar and lemon ( without the milk) seems to work better and sprinkling coconut on top ( with or without lemon zest) is divine. 
Thank you and enjoy!

Lovely, I found I needed more icing so doubled mixture and sprinkled coconut and zest on top

So yummy and a hit with the whole family.
