1½ c. prepared sugar cookies, crumbled
⅔ c. unsalted butter, softened (not melted)
1½ c. powdered sugar
3 Tbsp. key lime juice
zest of 2 key limes
3-4 key limes, sliced, for garnish

Steps:

  • INSTRUCTIONS Combine cookie crumbs and ⅓ c. butter in a medium bowl. Press onto bottom of an 9-inch square pan. Refrigerate until firm. Combine powdered sugar, ⅓ c. butter, key lime juice, and key lime zest in a small bowl. Beat at medium-high speed until light and smooth. Spread over crust. Score bars to desired size (approx. 1½ inch squares) and top each square with a key lime slice. Cover bars and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. Store in refrigerator. Remove lime slice before eating. (*Recipe adapted from The Cookie Cookbook: Citrus Cream Bars)
