"PUT THE LIME IN THE COCONUT" BARS



I tweaked a recipe I had for lemon bars to make one including two of my favorite flavors. I used Key Limes so the hardest part of this recipe is zesting and juicing all the limes. You could use regular limes, if desired. These were a big hit with everyone at my house. Enjoy!
