I have a friend who loves anything with lemon. Or lime. In fact, with all the sour stuff she eats, it's almost surprising she's so sweet.
As a thank-you for her sweet generosity, I made her Martha's Coconut-Key Lime Squares. She loves lemon bars, so I thought she would also love these. This recipe is a twist on the classic lemon bar: it uses Key-limes instead of lemons and adds coconut and white chocolate to the crust.
I think these are my favorite lemon (lime?) bars ever. The lime is fantastic. I will admit to a few changes, however. First, I detest shaved coconut and didn't add it to the recipe. Second, I didn't have quite enough white chocolate for the crust. Even with these changes, these lime squares were delicious.
I will point out that the recipe says it makes 64 bars. It's made in an eight-inch square pan. How one can cut an eight-inch square pan of dessert into 64 bars is beyond me. Perhaps Martha is also magic.
