375g/12oz biscuits – half digestive and half ginger nuts
150g/5oz-unsalted butter

Preparation Method - Preparation Time
Crush biscuits in a food processor or use the polythene bag rolling pin method. Melt butter in pan and combine the biscuit crumbs
Spoon mixture into cake tin and spread evenly over the bottom.
Place in fridge to chill
Place lime juice in a LARGE bowl, add cream and condensed milk. Whisk until stiff enough to stand in peaks. Add zest and stir in with spoon (save a little of zest to decorate). Spoon the mixture into cake tin in which you have added the biscuit base
