Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325˚F.
- Combine Lorna Dune cookies, sliced almonds, coconut and sugar in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until mixture is coarsely chopped. Add butter and pulse a few more times to combine.
- Dump cookie mixture into an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom**. Pat mixture up sides of pan forming a fairly thick edge. Pat remaining crumbs across bottom of pan.
- Place pan in oven and bake crust for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside to cool completely.
- Whip the cream until soft peaks form when you lift the beater. Fold in the condensed milk, lime juice and lime zest (save a teaspoon for the top). Spread the filling into the pan evenly, swirling the top a bit. Sprinkle with reserved lime zest and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream, a thin half slice of lime and a sprig of mint, if desired.
- If you want to make this farther in advance (a week or two), just freeze it instead of refrigerating. Transfer from freezer to refridg a few hours before serving.
