- 1 can (397g) condensed milk
- 2 tsp lemon extract

Instructions
- Line a lamington tray - around 7x10inch with high edges - with baking paper.
- Crush the meringues and set aside until needed.
- Place the white chocolate, condensed milk and lemon extract into a saucepan and melt on low heat, stirring often so that the bottom doesn't burn.

- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the icing sugar until well combined.
- Pour in 3/4 of the crushed meringues and stir through quickly.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and sprinkle over the rest of the crushed meringus, pressing them gently into the top of the fudge.

- When set, remove fro the fridge and cut into squares.

This looks so delicious!! I LOVE white chocolate! Thank you so much for linking up at The Little Giggler. 🙂
I so want to make this. I saw you featured at Success U. Is lemon essence like lemon extract?
The original recipe said to use lemon extract. I only had lemon essence in my cupboard, so I just used that. It may taste a little less lemony with the extract.
What a fantastic idea! I love lemon but I never would have thought of adding it into fudge. Pinning 🙂
