  • ½ cup vegan condensed milk
  • Pinch turmeric (for color)

Instructions

  1. Cut lemons in half and scoop out the centers to create lemon cups. Pat dry and set aside.
  2. Mix crushed biscuits with melted butter until it resembles wet sand. Press about ½ tablespoon into the base of each lemon cup.
