  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz / 397g)
  • 2 Peppermint Crisp bars, crushed

Instructions

Notes

  • Want a crunchier crust? Use a digestive biscuit or graham cracker crust instead.

  • For extra creaminess, fold in ½ cup whipped cream into the lemon mixture.
  • Storage: Keep refrigerated for up to 3 days.
