Notes

Feel free to substitute Marías cookies with Graham crackers or Digestive biscuits. For a fruity twist, try using lime or orange jelly instead of lemon. This dessert is best when allowed to set overnight, ensuring perfect layers for slicing. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; the flavors may intensify over time!
