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. |
