If you’re a big fan of zesty lime or lemon desserts, you are going to fall in love with this layered fridge tart. Its easy to make and can be prepared in advance and left in the fridge overnight. Perfect for a stress-free summer dinner party dessert!
The best part is that it takes only 30 minutes to whip up, so if you have limited time, this recipe will save the day. Keep in mind though that it needs to set in the fridge.
This fool-proof recipe calls for very few ingredients: Just some limes or lemons, cream, a tin of sweetened condensed milk and a packet of Tennis biscuits which can be switched up with some Graham Crackers. Creamy citrus tart made from just lemons and a tin of condensed milk.
Add enough lime (or lemon) juice to the condensed milk so that it is thick enough and you decide just how tangy you want your fridge tart to be.
Place the condensed milk and cream in a mixing bowl and add lime juice 5ml at a time while combining with an electric mixer. Taste after every 5ml and add to suit your taste. The lime juice will curdle the condensed milk and it will finally turn lighter in colour and change the texture.
Be sure to end with a fairly tangy mixture to offset the sweetness of the condensed milk.
To give this sweet and creamy citrus fridge tart a more biscuit-like taste and texture, use 1/2 the ingredients while still using the same quantity of lime juice.
After layering the ingredients decorate with the leftover biscuit crumbs and lime rind or berries. Serve with ice cream for some added decadence!
