Coconut Lime Sour Bars


I am sharing the recipe from the Barn House bake contest. I won first place! Woo Hoo!


Coconut Lime Sour Bars
Crust:
2 C flour
4 T sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1 stick plus 2 1/2 T butter
Mash together (dry, but holds together). Pour into 13x9 baking dish. Press into pan as evenly as possible. Bake at 350 degrees for minutes.

Filling:
4 eggs
1 C chopped almonds
3 C coconut flakes
1 1/2 C brown sugar
Mix and spread over hot baked crust. Bake 30 more minutes.

Glaze:
4 T lime juice (2 limes)
1 1/2 C powder sugar
2 tsp lime zest
glaze while HOT. Work quickly.
I usually add a little bit more lime juice to thin the glaze a bit.

ENJOY!
