Directions
Streusel-Topped Key Lime Squares, From Cooking Light (June 2005) , Had some key lime juice to use up and this worked well We froze several and they are good that way also , This recipe was fast and super easy I did have to make a few changes because of what I had on hand used bottled lime juice and since no fresh limes I didn’t have any zest So I added extra lemon extract in the crust This turned out tangy and sweet, but not overly, which IMO lots of citrus baked goods are I enjoyed the lower fat content because lemon/lime squares can be extremely high in fat The only thing I didn’t like was the streusel topping It just crumbled off and made a mess all over the counter and floor Even though, I will make this again making sure to try with the fresh juice and zest Thank you for a tasty recipe My daughter (6) and I had a wonderful time making this together
