It’s Ye olde worlde Christmas hedgehog !
I have whipped this up over the years because it’s quick and easy.
Oh and it’s sensational : outrageously sweet and delicious.
It looks so chic wrapped in simple tissue paper and tied up with raffia ribbon to give as a gift.
Adulterated from Womens Weekly  it’s perfect when you’re busy because you don’t need to use the oven to bake it .
Just whip it up and toss in the fridge. Done.

You need for 12 slices
3/4 cup (180ml) sweetened condensed milk
