Ingredients

Units Scale

Base

Filling

  • 14 oz = 400 g can of sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice (125 ml)
  • 2 tsp lemon zest, divided
  • 1 can crushed pineapple, well drained
  • 10 oz = 300 ml whipping cream
  • 1 tbsp powdered milk

Topping

  • 1 small Cadbury Lunch Bar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350⁰F (180⁰C). Lightly spray a pie dish.
  2. Add the 1 pkt tennis biscuits and 4 tbsp sugar to a food processor and blitz until fine crumbs form.
  3. Pour in the 4 tbsp melted butter and pulse until it looks like damp sand. If it feels too dry, add just a tiny splash more melted butter.
  4. Press the crumb mixture firmly into your pie dish, using the back of a glass to smooth it across the base and slightly up the sides. Try to keep it even so it doesn’t crumble later.
  5. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, just until lightly golden and set.
  6. Let it cool completely before adding the filling.
  7. In a bowl, mix the 400 g condensed milk, 1/2 cup lemon juice, and 1 tsp lemon zest until smooth and slightly thickened.
  8. Stir in the well-drained crushed pineapple. Make sure the pineapple isn’t watery, or the filling won’t set properly.
  9. In a separate bowl, whip the 300 ml whipping cream with 1 tbsp powdered milk until stiff peaks form. The powdered milk helps it hold its shape a bit better.
  10. Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon pineapple mixture. Don’t overmix, or you will deflate the tart.
  11. Spoon the filling over the cooled biscuit base and smooth the top.
  12. Sprinkle over the remaining 1 tsp lemon zest.
  13. Refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours until fully set.
  14. If you’re in a mad rush, pop it in the freezer for about an hour to speed things up, then move it back to the fridge.
  15. Just before serving, crunch the 1 small Cadbury Lunch Bar into crumbs and sprinkle generously over the top. Add it last so it stays crunchy.
