Aussie Lemon Coconut Slice No Bake Recipes

LEMON SLICE

Steps:

• Finely crush ¾ of the biscuits in the food processor. Crush the remaining biscuits only roughly. If you don't have a food processor, place ¾ of the biscuits in a freezer bag, close well and crush finely with a rolling pin. Place in a bowl and add the roughly crushed ones as well. Set aside.
• Place the butter and sweetened condensed milk in a small saucepan. Heat gently, while stirring, until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth. Add the lemon juice and lemon zest.
• Pour over the crushed biscuits, add the desiccated coconut and stir well to combine.
• Line a baking dish of about 25x20cm/10x8 inches with baking paper. Press the mixture into the dish. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes until set.
• Make sure that the butter is very soft, like a paste.
• Sieve the icing sugar into a bowl. Add the butter, lemon juice, and hot water. Whisk well until the mixture is smooth.
• Spread over the lemon slice. Sprinkle with the desiccated coconut.
• Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Cut into small squares (about 24).
