I don't know but may I suggest whatever recipe you have, substitute a digestive base for ginger nuts or half and half.

Gingernuts make a cracking and tangy base which accompanies the lemon splendedly.

Here is the one I use,
4oz(100gm)Hob nob biscuits crushed
2oz(50gm)butter
1oz(25gm) demerara sugar.

1x1pint(600ml)lemon jelly
juice 1 lemon12oz(350gm) full-fat soft cheese
4oz(100gm) caster sugar5fl oz(150ml whipping cream(whipped)

Lightly oil a loose bottom cake tin(8inch round)or a spring release tin
Melt butter add crushed bisc and sugar press over bottom of tin.

0Dissolve jelly in 150ml boiling water add juice of lemon and make up to300ml.Place in cool place until nearly set.
Mix soft cheese with the sugar and jelly then fold in whipped cream,put on top of biscuit base,leave to set.
You can decorate with swirls of whipped cream..leave plain ..or sometimes I crumble a choc flake on top.
This is delicious and easy to make.
