Share recipe
Description
I got this authentic Mexican dessert recipe from a friend from Mexico. The fruit, cookies and creamy filling mixture give it a delicious and unique flavor and texture. You can find the cookies in the Mexican foods section of your local grocery store.
Ingredients
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 8 small limes, juiced
- 1 (20 ounce) package Mexican Maria cookies (galletas Marias)
- 1 (15 ounce) can fruit cocktail, drained
- 1 (15 ounce) can sliced peaches, drained
Directions
- 1. Blend sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, cream cheese, and lime juice in a blender until sauce is creamy. Pour sauce into a bowl.
- 2. Dip enough Maria cookies to cover the bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish in the creamy lime sauce. Spread a layer of fruit cocktail over the cookies. Dip and layer a second layer of Maria cookies over the fruit cocktail. Continue dipping and layering cookies and fruit cocktail until the last layer of cookies is about 1 inch from the top of pan. Spread peaches over the dessert.
- 3. Cover dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight before serving.
