Ingredients to make Peruvian Lemon Pie:

Base:

 2 cups of vanilla cookies (Maria)

 ½ cup butter (unsalted)

Stuffed:

 1 can of condensed milk (400g)

 ½ cup of lemon juice

 4 egg (yolks)

Meringue:

 4 egg (whites)

 175 grams of white sugar

How to make Peruvian Lemon Pie:

Crush the Maria cookies in the way that seems most effective to you: with a food processor, blender, rolling pin, etc. Reservation.

Tip: Preheat the oven to 180C

Prepare the base of the Peruvian lemon pie first. On one side, melt the butter; on the other, add the cookie crumbs in the mould (preferably removable). Pour the batter over the crumbs and knead into a smooth, manageable dough. Spread the dough over the entire surface of the pan evenly. Then, bake at 180 ºC for 15 minutes and, after time, let it cool down to room temperature and reserve.

Then, make the filling of the Peruvian lemon pie. To do this, add the condensed milk, egg yolks and lemon juice to a bowl. Stir the ingredients with a wooden spoon very well until they are completely integrated.

Tip: Preferably, lightly beat the egg yolks before adding them to the preparation.

Pour the lemon filling over the cookie base. Put the Peruvian pie with cookies in the oven at 180ºC for 15 minutes. Remove and wait until it cools.

Finally, prepare the topping for the Peruvian lemon pie. To make the meringue, beat the whites until reaching the point of snow. For this, you must beat in a circular way, from top to bottom to incorporate as much air as possible, then add a pinch of salt. When the whites get quite high, add the sugar little by little and beat until they are firm.

With the help of a spoon and a pastry sleeve, decorate the Peruvian lemon pie with cookies. With the spoon (wooden or a silicone spatula) cover the surface of the cake. Then, using the piping bag (or even the same spoon or fork) create peaks with the meringue, or shape it to your liking. Return to the oven until the topping is lightly browned.

Tip: You can improvise a piping bag out of a plastic bag.

I decorated this wonderful Peruvian pie using sugar flavoured with lemon zest and some mint leaves. Absolutely fragrant!
