Creamy Lime Slice

Creamy Lime Slice

MMMMMMMMMMMMM Creamy Lime Slice! Heaven!

Zesty, Creamy, Crumbly…all my favourite things. I’ve never really been into Chocolatey desserts or just desserts in general but I do like to cleanse my palette after dinner with something citrusy. Same with my husband apparently as he’s eaten half of one of these in just the past 3 days ha!

This is when those 20×20 trays come in handy again. I especially like them cooked in these as they can be peeled off once cooked and set. The steaming paper was just a precaution.

 

 

 

The measurements in the recipe work out perfectly for these trays which fit in the base of my 3.2l and my 5.5l but if they don’t fit in yours then any deep dish will work, you will just have to divide the recipe into 2 or 3.

The base and the crumble are made out of the same ingredients which makes it a SUPER easy recipe but also what amazes me is that because the base is compacted and the top is crumbly you wouldn’t even know!

 

 

The filling is perfect with Lime but can also be swapped to lemon or any citrus fruit you love. The flicks of the green zest through the creamy filling looks gorgeous when serving which is a plus when serving for guests. *Please note – try to not scrape all of the filling onto the slice base as that takes away all the joys of licking the bowl!!!!

We served this delicious slice on Christmas Day after lunch with vanilla ice-cream. Perfection! Alternatively you can use custard or double cream. It’s quite a rich sauce so its whichever you prefer.
