1. Place biscuit crumbs, coconut and lemon zest into large mixing bowl and mix until combined.  Place condensed milk and butter into a large pot and heat on medium heat until all butter has melted.

 

2. Pour condensed milk and butter mixture over biscuit mixture and stir through until well combined.  Add a few drops of zesty lemon oil according to desired taste. Press firmly into tray (a flat fondant smoother works well).
