Lemon Chilled Flan

This is my mother in law's recipes, it's one of mine and Steve's favourite puddings.  Steve made it for me for mothers day and it was so nice he made another one last night.  So simple, yet soooo tasty.

1/4 pint double cream
6oz can condensed milk
2 large lemons
4oz digestive biscuits
2oz butter
1 level tbsp caster sugar

Crush the biscuits with a rolling pin.  Melt the butter in a pan.  Add the sugar, then blend the biscuit crumbs.  Mix well.  Turn the mixture into a 7 inch pie or flan dish.
Press into shape around the base and sides with the back of a spoon.
Bake in a the oven for 8 minutes at 160 degrees.  Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
Grate the lemon rind and put to one side.  Juice the lemons and put to one side.
Mix together the cream, condensed milk and lemon rind.
Slowly beat in the lemon juice.  Pour the mixture into the flan case and chill for several hours until firm.
