Mix in the cream with a spoon or whisk, without trying to whip it into peaks.<\/li>\n<li>Divide the filling into two equal portions. Put the 60 ml milk in a shallow bowl. Briefly dip the first 100 g sponge fingers in the milk without leaving them to soak.<\/li>\n<li>Arrange the sponge fingers in the dish, breaking some to fit if needed. Cover with half the filling and spread gently.<\/li>\n<li>Briefly dip the remaining 100 g sponge fingers in the remaining milk and make the second layer. Finish with all the remaining filling. If the milk runs out first, add any remaining fingers dry: they will absorb moisture from the cream.<\/li>\n<li>Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours. Add the optional zest and serve chilled with a spoon. Do not try to unmould it like a gelatine-set cake.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Single cream is not whipping cream<\/h2>\n<p>Ordinary single cream will not form firm peaks simply by whisking. This formula uses it in its liquid state, combined with condensed milk and lemon. Do not add extra juice to wet the sponge fingers: it changes the proportions and makes the dessert much more acidic.<\/p>\n<h2>Storage<\/h2>\n<p>Keep covered in the fridge at 0\u20135\u00b0C and eat within 48 hours. Cool cooked food promptly and refrigerate within 2 hours, using shallow containers where needed. Mixing leftovers with new ingredients does not restart their storage time. Also follow any shorter use-by instructions on the packaging.<\/p>\n<p>Storage guidance: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/how-to-chill-freeze-and-defrost-food-safely\/how-to-chill-freeze-and-defrost-food-safely\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Food Standards Agency<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Can I serve it as soon as it is assembled?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For this recipe, allow the stated chilling time.
