Out of the Ord - Limes

With the highway closed and minimal food getting into Coles in Kununurra, last week saw a couple of empty aisles and very slim pickings for fresh produce.
​Luckily these limes are sold directly into Tuckerbox stores here in Kununurra and the rest of the ingredients are staples in a bakers pantry.
​A nice easy sweet treat that I'll be taking to Crazy Crocs playgroup tomorrow, for all the mums needing a pick-me-up, best served with a cup of tea!

Ingredients:
Biscuit base:
  • 250 grams sweet biscuits (I used milk arrowroot biscuits)
  • 1 lime, (zested and squeezed)
  • ½ cup desiccated coconut
  • 125 grams light condensed milk
  • 100 grams butter
Lime Icing:
  • 20 grams butter
  • 2 cups icing sugar
  • 3 tbsp. lime juice (1-2 limes)

Method:
  1. Line a 20cm x 30cm rectangular pan with baking paper so that the edges overhand the sides.
  2. Crush sweet biscuits and place in a food processor, process till crumbly.
  3. Combine biscuits with finely zested lime rind, lime juice and coconut, stir.
  4. Partially melt chopped butter in a small saucepan then add the condensed milk, stirring to combine, once smooth pour into the biscuit mixture.
  5. Stir to combine the using the back of a spoon press the mixture firmly into the pan. Refrigerate until firm.
    1. Meanwhile make the lime icing: Sift icing sugar into a heat proof bowl, stir in the butter and juice. Place bowl over a simmering saucepan of water and stir until runny.
  6. Pour icing over the slice, refrigerate until firm.
