TEQUILA-LIME-COCONUT MACAROON BARS



Tequila-Lime-Coconut Macaroon Bars image

From Southern Living magazine, April 2011. I've not tried this recipe, but it sounds really good. NOTE: This recipe has quite a bit of sugar in it, so for my family, I would personally experiment with it using Splenda to cut the sugar for a diabetic dessert. I would also use gluten-free AP flour.
