A treat for mother's day

With mother's day approaching my mom was planning a lovely lamb dinner and I said I'd make desert and she requested a lemon meringue with biscuit base just like my nan used to make. The pressure!

Having never made it before and not having my nans recipe I turned to mary berry for guidnace. It seemed simple in theory; a digestive and ginger nut biscuit base; a lemon flavoured filling and a light soft meringue topping. So I gave it a go and results were quite pleasing.

Next time, to improve I think I would use a smaller tin to make it deeperand possibly adapt the meringue recipe so it was tougher. Yummy all the same :-)
