No Bake Lemon Slice

June 10, 2018 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 4 Comments

I love sharing my families favourite recipes here and am building a great resource for my children when they leave home. Instead of handwriting a collection of recipes in a book or on recipe cards, they can come here to find all of our most loved recipes in one place.   Over the 10 years we have been blogging, we have certainly shared a huge number of recipes.

Our lunchbox treat this week is No Bake Lemon Slice. Made from crushed shortbread biscuits (cookies), mixed with lemon rind, coconut, and condensed milk, and then topped with a tart lemon icing. Delicious … it is hard to stop at one piece!

No bake lemon slice is really easy to prepare and would be a great recipe for children to make as they don’t need to use the oven.

If you would like to try No Bake Lemon Slice, follow the recipe below:
