Recipe Notes
Recipe from The Girl Who Ate Everything
Wanna know the secret ingredient? Sweetened condensed milk. Just add that to a little lemon and voila! You have your filling. These are ridiculously easy to whip up. Like ridiculously. But you would never know by how good they are! I got this recipe from The Girl Who Ate Everything and am I ever glad I did.
These are served best cooled, so the condensed milk has time to set up and doesn’t get all over the place. Either way though, they are delightfully delicious!
