This is a tried and tested recipe that appeared on a tv show many years ago. It's one of my favourites! Can confirm this translated ok for the TM6 with some improvements (I use the thermomix to dice up the lime zest superfine and the filling needed extra blending to get the lumps out). The biscuit base recipe should only be one packet. Thank you! So pleased I could do this with my thermomix
Hi Ros ... will definately try this recipe!! Looks delicious. Do you mind if I contacted you about the overseas volunteer work your daughter is doing? My youngest daughter has been to Kenya twice to volunteer (school mission trips) She has just completed her first year at Uni and wants to take a Gap year to travel and do some volunteer work as well. She found an organisation in the US, but they won't allow Australians for their program. Would really appreciate finding out about what your daughter is doing

Was delicious, looked very impressive like a cheescake in a shop. I had to add a little more butter to get the biscuit base to stick, next time would probably make a smaller amount of base. I also had to cook it for a longer time. Thank you for the recipe will definitly make it again.
My daughter has requested this for her going away party. She's going to be volunteering in a third world country for a year so this is her last Australian supper. Thank you for the recipe.
