I got this authentic Mexican dessert recipe from a friend from Mexico. The fruit, cookies and creamy filling mixture give it a delicious and unique flavor and texture. You can find the cookies in the Mexican foods section of your local grocery store.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
8 small limes, juiced
1 (20 ounce) package Mexican Maria cookies (galletas Marias)

Steps:

  • Blend sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, cream cheese, and lime juice in a blender until sauce is creamy. Pour sauce into a bowl.

Dip and layer a second layer of Maria cookies over the fruit cocktail. Continue dipping and layering cookies and fruit cocktail until the last layer of cookies is about 1 inch from the top of pan. Spread peaches over the dessert.
