Lime Lattice Biscuits Food

NO BAKE LATTICE SLICE

Steps:

• Line a 20cm square cake tin with baking paper, leaving plenty of paper hanging over the sides to help you remove the lattice slice once it has set.
• Combine the gelatine and boiling water in a small bowl and mix well. Set aside to let the water cool slightly.
• Place the softened cream cheese, softened butter and caster sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer and mix for 5 -6 minutes or until smooth and creamy. Please note the mixing time may vary depending on the temperature of your ingredients.
• Add the vanilla essence, lemon juice and cooled water/gelatine mixture and mix for a further 2 - 3 minutes until combined.
• Line the base of the prepared tin with lattice biscuits - sugar side down (you should use around 9) and pour the cheesecake mixture over the top. Place another 9 lattice biscuits (sugar side up) on top of the cheesecake mixture and place the no bake Lattice Slice into the fridge for 6 hours (preferably overnight) to set.

BISCUITY LIME PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Tip the biscuits into a food processor and blitz to crumbs. Add the butter and pulse to combine. Tip the mix into a fluted rectangular tart tin, about 10 x 34cm (or 20cm round tin) and press into the base and up the sides right to the edge. Bake for 15 mins until crisp.
• While the base is baking, tip the egg yolks, sugar, and lime and lemon zests into a bowl and beat with an electric whisk until doubled in volume. Pour in the condensed milk, beat until combined, then add the citrus juices.
• Pour the mix into the tart case and bake for 20 mins until just set with a slight wobble in the centre. Leave to set completely, then remove from the tin, cool and chill. Serve in slices topped with thin lime slices, if you like.
