Volunteer Mary would like to share a favourite recipe of hers with us.

03.23.2026 by Admin //

It’s a Lemon Tart that looks a lot like a cheesecake.
Ingredients
8 digestives
2oz melted butter
¼ pint double cream
1 tin condensed milk
2 lemons
Double cream or ice cream to serve
Method
Smash the biscuits, mix with the butter, form into a tin to make a base and chills for an hour or so. Then whip ¼ pint double cream and add the tin of condensed milk and the juice of 2 lemons. Once added to the top of the base it can then be chilled and decorated with lemon zest and kept for a couple of days meaning it could be made in advance which is always handy.
‘It’s a quick and easy recipe that is so tasty’ says Mary who makes it often and serves with more cream or ice cream. All of the ingredients for this are available to buy at the shop so why not pop up and try out her delicious Lemon Tart.
