Notes

• You can swap the gingernut biscuits for chocolate or malt, if you prefer. • You will need about ⅓ cup lime juice for this recipe. • We finished ours with icing sugar and a little lime zest. Lime and ginger are also a great match for chocolate, so to take this tart to the next level, garnish with grated chocolate or a drizzle of rich chocolate sauce.
