Fifteens are very popular in Northern Ireland. They are very sweet and yummy. Sweet like gypsy tart.;)

something mom used to do when i was a kid is lemon fluff pie.

use the (bashed up) biscuits with a bit of butter (to bind) at the bottom of a pie dish.
then get a packet of Green's Lemon Meringue pie mix (its around a £1 or less for 2 packets in a box). divide an egg - whites into a bowl, egg yolk in a saucepan. Put 1/2 pint cold water in the pan with the egg yolk and the packet. whizz the whites with a beater/whisk until fluffy. then turn the heat on under your pan, and stir until the sauce thickens (it won't take long).

So far all that is as follows on the back of the packet so if you lose this part, you know where to look. Where it deviates from lemon meringue pie: take a small spoon of the whisked whites and stir into the lemon sauce. Then pour the whole of the lemon sauce into the bowl with the whites and stir well until all the whites are incorporated. You now have something that looks like lemon mousse. Pour that over the biscuit base and refridgerate until set.

you can do this without the biscuit part, or, if you're lazy, just spoon the lemon fluff bit into bowls, refridgerate, then when its set, toss the crumbled biccies ontop. If you're not dieting, add a squirt of cream. You can also do this with bashed ginger nut biccies.

this is a great storecupboard standby cos none of it (apart from the egg) is really short term perishable - i usually have a box in the cupboard for when i have a pudding attack.

enjoy!

:rotfl: Ensuring you do not exceed the 3.5 second dunking time for fear of the biscuit dropping into the bottom of your mug!

have a go at nigella`s malteser traybake http://www.nigella.com/recipes/recipe.asp?article=657 it is seriously delish and very easy to make!
*WARNING* this will stick straight on your hips...but its worth every delishous (sp?) mouthful!!!

odds-n-sods

give them the yogurt with fresh fruit chopped in and 2 biccies each for spoons..... or crumble the biccies in the bottom of the bowl then add the yog + fruit.
