Packet of marie Biscuits
100gr butter
First melt the butter, then crush the biscuits to fine crumbs using a rolling pin and combine them with the
melted butter. Now press the biscuit mixture evenly over the base of a lightly oiled, 8 inch (20 cm) springform tin.
(If the biscuits appear a bit crumbly add a little more melted butter but not
enough to make the mixture too wet or it will set hard!)
Filling:
1 Tin condensed milk 2 egg yolks
2 teasp cornflour 2 stiffly beaten egg whites
½ cup lemon juice
Mix condensed milk, cornflour, lemon juice and egg yolks together. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites.
Pour mixture into base and bake at 150˚ C for 20 minutes. When cool sprinkle top with Marie biscuit crumbs.
