Coconut Key Lime Cookie Bars

By srumbel

These cookie bars come together very easily because I used a roll of Pillsbury refrigerated cookie bars as the base. The filling is creamy, cool, and flavorful and the coconut sprinkle topping gives just the right amount of texture on top of the smooth filling.

Ingredients

• 1 Pillsbury refrigerated sugar cookie roll
• 1 can of condensed milk
• 1/2 c. fresh lime juice
• 1 drop of green food color
• 1/4 c. sweetened coconut flakes

Preparation

Step 1

Pre heat the oven to 350*
Line a 9x9 baking pan with foil. Unroll the cookie dough and press it into the foil lined pan. Bake for 16-18 minutes.
In the meantime, stir the condensed milk and lime juice together in a medium bowl. Add the drop of green food color, stirring until well mixed.
Pour the lime mixture over the top of the hot cookie layer that you just removed from the oven. Spread evenly. Sprinkle shredded coconut over the top and return to the oven for approximately 16 minutes longer or until the lime mixture no longer jiggles and the coconut is beginning to brown.
Place the pan on a cooling rack to cool for 30 minutes. Loosely cover with foil and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
