Key Lime Bars Recipe
Key Lime Bars Recipe
Author: Desiree Campbell
Serves: 16
Ingredients
- 1 box of Pillsbury Key Lime Cookie Mix
- ¼ cup of soft butter
- 3 eggs
- 1 Package - 8oz softened cream cheese
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 2 teaspoons of grated lime peel
- ½ Cup Pillsbury Key Lime Frosting
Instructions
- Using a fork mix together the cookie mix, one of the eggs and butter, until the mixture is crumbly. Press in bottom of ungreased 9x9 inch pan. It is going to look like the layer is too thin but it will rise while baking.
- In a bowl mix together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, the lime juice, and one teaspoon of the lime peel. { If you like the topping to be more lemonish then add more lemon juice to it } You want the mixture to be really creamy. Put aside ½ cup of the mixture in the fridge.
- Add the other two eggs to the remainder of the cream cheese mixture and pour it evenly on top of the cake mixture.
- Bake at 325 F degrees between 20 and 25 minutes.
- TOPPING:
- Mix ½ cup Key Lime Frosting and the ½ cup cream cheese mixture that you put aside before.
- After the lemon bars are cool spread this topping mixture on top of it. I like to sprinkle the other teaspoon of lemon peel on top of the lemon bars.
These are so darn yummy… Enjoy!
