LEMON MERINGUE TART MADE WITH CONDENSED MILK
Lemon Meringue tart to die for,my grandmother has made this tart for the last 70 years she still makes it she is 92 years old now, all her grandchildren have been given a copy of this recipe. I love making this lemon meringue tart as it is very easy to make, it delectable. I use one packet 200g of tennis biscuits these contain coconut, use any type of biscuit, crush them fine for the base the only biscuit that cannot be used is ginger. The cooking time does not include the standing time,when baking this tart in the afternoon the oven must be turned off the tart must be left in the oven with the door closed until the next day. When baking this tart early in the morning the oven must be turned off the tart must be left in the oven with the door closed until that evening.
