Prep time: 1 Hr Serves: 6-8 people
Ingredients
5 can(s) sweet condensed milk
10 egg yolks
2 c pure lemon juice
1 Tbsp pure vanilla flavoring
2 box real vanilla wafers
1/2 stick pure butter
Directions
1. CRUST: Finely crush 1/2 box of vanilla wafers. Then coarsely chop the remaining 1/2 of the box of vanilla wafers. In a small sauce pan on low heat, melt 1/2 stick of pure butter. Using a mixing bowl, mix the crushed wafers and butter together, then spread evenly over the bottom of a 13×9 glass pan. Place in refrigerator for 15-30 min. to allow crust to set.
2. FILLING: Open all 5 cans of the sweet condensed milk. Pour all the milk in a large mixing bowl. Add the vanilla flavoring. Gradually stir in the lemon juice until completely blended, (you may not use all of it). Separate the egg yolks from the egg whites. Stir in the egg yolks. Mixture should be slightly stiffening up by now. Once filling is complete, line the sides of the glass pan with whole vanilla wafers. Now pour in the lemon filling in the pan. Once the pan is full with the lemon filling, crush a few vanilla wafers on top of the lemon custard for decoration. Cover with SaranWrap to prevent a film from developing while chilling in the fridge. Place the lemon custard dessert in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours or until set. Enjoy!
