Directions
Very Tangy Lime (Or Lemon) Bars,This recipe is out of a cookbook called “Pure Dessert” by Alice Medrich. The emphasis is on “pure flavor,” or, in this case, “pure lime” (a half cup mind you). Yum. The crust is buttery, delicious, crunchiness, underneath it all.,LOVE IT! Thank you. I had a large bag of limes left over from a margarita party and needed to do something with it. Boy, this was easy, fast and delicious. I was out of vanilla but I did not miss it. I forgot to dust it with powder sugar. Just went ahead and ate it warm. Yummy. It’s unanimous, everyone who tried this lime bar loves it. I’ve made it twice in less than 1 week.,Made for It’s Not Easy being Green March Tag. These were really yummy. Because I am gluten free, I didn’t use the crust recipe as I have a crust recipe for lemon bars that works really well and I didn’t want to have a disaster (which I have had before trying other lemon bar recipes). I did use the filling recipe and it was fantastic. What a nice change from the normal lemon bars. Now I’m inspired to try this with fresh oranges. :yummy: Thanks for posting this recipe!
