"This chilled dessert is a sort of Brazilian trifle with layers of ladyfingers, canned peaches, prunes, and a rich, peachy cream."

Directions

Line a 10-inch square baking dish with plastic wrap.
Combine condensed milk and lemon juice in a bowl and mix well until creamy. Set lemon cream aside.
Slice 1 peach and set aside to use as decoration. Cut remaining peaches into small cubes.
Measure out 1 cup of peach syrup and pour into a saucepan. Add prunes and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Combine remaining peach syrup and milk in a shallow bowl. Dip ladyfingers into syrup mixture and layer into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Add a layer of peaches followed by a layer of prunes. Pour 1/2 the lemon cream evenly on top. Add another layer of soaked ladyfingers, followed by peaches and prunes. Top with remaining ladyfingers. Cover with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate for 4 hours. Turn out onto a plate. Garnish with reserved peach slices. Serve chilled.
