Description

Vanilla cookies are layered with a tart lime cream sauce in this simple, Mexican cookie cake that can be served cold or frozen.

Ingredients

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup key lime juice
1/2 teaspoon grated lime zest
5 ounces vanilla cookies (such as Marias Gamesa®)

Directions

1 Pour condensed milk, lime juice, and lime zest into a blender and blend until rich and creamy.
2 Arrange a layer of cookies to cover the bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Pour 1/4 of the lime cream over the cookies. Repeat layers to use up all cookies and cream.
3 Cover and refrigerate for 5 to 6 hours, or if you prefer a more chilled dessert, place in the freezer for 2 hours before serving.
