Description

These lemon coconut squares are so soft and chewy they are fudge-like. They’re sweet with a delicious lemon tang and so easy to make – no baking required!


Ingredients

  • 200g (2 cups) of crushed plain sweet biscuits
  • 1 1/4 cups of coconut
  • 400g tin of sweetened condensed milk
  • zest of one lemon
  • 3 tablespoons of lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup extra coconut (for coating)


Instructions

  1. Line a 20 cm (8 inch) square baking pan with non-stick baking paper, leaving excess paper hanging over the edge to allow you to lift the mixture out after chilling.
  2. Place all ingredients except the extra coconut into a large mixing bowl and mix well.
  3. Press the mixture into the lined baking pan and refrigerate for 4 hours (mixture is initially quite sticky and the longer you chill it the easier it will be to cut).
  4. Cut into squares and press the edges of the squares into the extra coconut to coat.
  5. Store the squares in an airtight container in the fridge.
